Default diverted or deviated ?
Hi everyone !

I've done an exercise with one of my students and the sentence was the following :
Because of heavy snow in London, their plane was diverted/ deviated. You had to choose the correct answer.
The answer was : diverted.
I can't see the difference .
Can someone explain why diverted was chosen ?
For me deviated means the same.
Thanks a lot
