An easyJet flight bound for Glasgow had to make an unexpected landing in Liverpool. Departing from Palma de Mallorca Airport around 6:40 pm on Sunday, May 31, flight EJU7357 was en route to Glasgow Airport.
The Airbus A319 was originally scheduled to land in Scotland at approximately 8:45 pm but was redirected to Liverpool John Lennon Airport. Following the diversion, easyJet issued an apology to affected passengers, attributing the incident to circumstances beyond their control, as reported by the Daily Record.
In an online communication to passengers, easyJet expressed regret, stating, “We regret to inform you that your flight will be diverted to Liverpool. We apologize for the inconvenience and aim to resume your journey to Glasgow promptly.”
The airline clarified that the disruption was considered an extraordinary circumstance beyond their control and assured passengers of refueling and continuation of the flight at the earliest convenience. Passengers were informed that the crew would provide them with updates.
Earlier in the week, an easyJet flight from the Isle of Man to Liverpool had to declare a mid-air emergency and divert to Manchester Airport due to an aborted landing sequence. The flight landed safely in Manchester at 4:05 pm on May 24.
