On 13 December, a Ryanair Boeing 737-800 (registered EI-DCW) operated flight FR8075 between Brussels South Charleroi Airport, Belgium, and Marrakesh, Morocco. During the flight, while flying south of Spain, the aircraft encountered a technical issue with one of the engines.
The pilots then diverted to Madrid, Spain, for a priority landing.
Ryanair’s statement:
“This flight from Charleroi to Marrakesh (13 Dec) was diverted to Madrid due to a technical issue with the aircraft. The aircraft landed safely, and passengers disembarked as normal. To minimise disruption, Ryanair quickly arranged for an alternative aircraft which departed for Marrakesh at 18:30 local time that same day.
We sincerely apologise to customers for any inconvenience caused as a result of this minor delay.”
