This evening's TUI Casablanca CMN to Charleroi CRL seemed to divert to Brussels BRU...
Flight TB2532 (OO-JAR) indeed diverted to BRU. I guess pax were bussed to CRL.
This diversion could have two reasons: very late departure of the flight (5 hr 30 min late), or weather conditions.

Strong winds at Gibraltar Airport this morning, a British Airways aircraft diverted to Malaga. The aircraft made a go-around and was filmed heavily banking left and right during the climb-out. One passenger filmed the event. Hold on tight !!

Air Transat flight #TS942 from Montreal to Fort Lauderdale (Boeing 737-800 reg. C-GTQG) diverted to Newark after a suspected fire in the cargo hold. After a rapid descent, the aircraft landed on Runway 4R. Passengers were evacuated through slides on the runway, which remained closed for an extended period of time. At a given moment, all runways have been closed.
