Exciting skies over the UK! 🛫✨ A Jet2 flight from sunny Lanzarote to Manchester had a bit of drama when one of the pilots fell ill mid-flight! Just 25 minutes before landing, the crew issued a ‘Squawk 7700’, signaling a general emergency. Thanks to quick thinking and teamwork, the plane landed safely at Manchester Airport at 8:14 pm, where medical staff were ready to assist the pilot. Details on their condition aren’t out yet, but we’re hoping for a full recovery! 🤞💪
And if that wasn’t enough, a Delta Air Lines flight also had its own emergency situation on the same day over UK skies. This time, it was a passenger who needed urgent care during the flight from New York to Tel Aviv. The plane made an unscheduled stop in Dublin, and the passenger received medical attention promptly. They’re in safe hands now! 🌍✈️
Two emergencies in one day show just how prepared and skilled our aviation crews are. Huge kudos to the pilots, crews, and all involved! 🙌👏
Stay tuned for more updates, and safe travels everyone! 🌟
