So the idea that they landed the plane to be used later for terrorism makes no sense to me...
Maybe to you...
The plane flew for over 7 hours. This is one of the only facts we actually know.
ETA: if the plane flew in the northern corridor then there are about 10 countries this plane could be in.

And flying below 5,000 feet burns a lot more fuel than normal.
So if the plane was in the air for 7 hours, and there was only enough fuel to last for 7 hours for a normal flight, there is no way the plane could have been travelling below 5,000 feet for very long because they would have ran out of fuel well before 7 hours in the air.
