The flight was in route from Athens to Rome and scheduled to terminate in London. The hijackers sought the release of 700 Shi'ite Muslims from Israeli custody. The passengers and crew endured a three-day intercontinental ordeal. Additional passengers were held hostage over the next two weeks until some of the captors demands were met.
