航班上发生了什么？

The easyJet flight was en route to Tenerife South, cruising at 35,000 feet, when a group of 12 passengers began behaving in a disruptive manner. While the nature of the incident has not yet been confirmed, the travellers’ behaviour sparked concerns about safety on board the flight, prompting crew members to trigger an alert to air traffic control.

Controllers on the ground in Tenerife immediately coordinated with authorities and requested a police presence to meet the flight upon its arrival at the aircraft stand.

To ensure the situation was resolved as quickly as possible, the controllers also shortened the aircraft’s approach, allowing the flight a more direct route to the runway and making it possible for the plane to perform an accelerated landing. Once the flight had safely landed in Tenerife, waiting police officers boarded the plane to identify and remove the 12 passengers involved in the disturbance.
