According to the airline, “Alitalia flight AZ2016 from Rome to Milan Linate, scheduled on 8.00 am this morning, went through an extraordinary and violent hailstorm soon after taking off from Fiumicino airport… Therefore, the pilots decided to head to Naples airport.”

The plane landed safely and all 110 passengers remained uninjured.

The aircraft sustained serious damage due to the storm.

The airline accommodated the passengers in other flights.
