Flights to and from Hamburg Airport were suspended for about 1 1/2 hours on Monday after authorities received a threat to a plane that arrived from Iran, officials said.

Takeoffs and landings at the airport in northern Germany were stopped at 12:40 p.m. (1040 GMT) and some arriving flights were diverted to Hannover among other places, German news agency dpa reported. Operations resumed later, though the airport warned on its website that delays were still possible.
