The Gran Canaria airport activated a special security protocol after receiving a bomb report on the Vueling aircraft. The aircraft was moved to an isolation zone in Telde. Bomb disposal units (Tedax) and firefighters intervened. Passengers and crew were evacuated to a separate room. They could not leave the terminal until 22:00. Air operations were temporarily suspended. This caused delays for other flights, including a Binter departure to Lanzarote. The Guardia Civil is investigating the false alarm.
