Boeing 757 Engine Bursts Into Flames Mid-Flight, Forcing Emergency Landing In City Without Enough Hotel Rooms For Everyone
Usually, it is a good thing to make a free journey to Italy. For passengers on board Condor Airlines flight On Saturday, Corfu, Greece, Düsseldorf, Free Travel to Germany, Italy was absolutely scary, because Boeing 757 had to make an emergency landing in the country when one of the engines exploded in the midst of the flight. . New York Post reports. When they landed at the Brindisi airport in Southern Italy, passengers faced another problem: it was not enough for everyone and some of them were reported to spend the night at the airport.
Two hundred seventy -three passengers left Corfu with eight crew members, but when the plane reached approximately 36,000 feet, passengers reportedly noticed the flames coming from the right side of the plane. Typically, you don’t want to see anything burning when a few miles in the sky, a metal tube, so it can be completely understood that the passengers are terrified. The good news is that they did it, but it does not change the fact that they are rightly worried that they will be the last for them.

Still these blankets and coupons
When contacting for a comment, a Condor Airlines spokesman Post The motor fire caused a “chemical reaction in the combustion chamber”. “The reason for this was a parameter indicator other than the normal range caused by a discomfort in the airflow supply to the engine.” It is not clear what this means, but that’s the explanation they go together for now. I hope we will get more information after finalizing the investigations.
As for the hotel room problem, the airline Post“Unfortunately, there was insufficient hotel capacity in Brindisi, so all guests cannot be hosted in hotels.” However, “additional coupons and blankets were organized at the airport and several stores were allowed to remain open to provide materials. Passengers who benefit from alternative accommodation options can offer repayment costs.”
This is definitely better than dying tied to a burning plane, but still a rough deal for passengers who are not lucky enough to buy hotel rooms. I hope that they will unexpectedly receive some compensation because they have to face their own deaths. Money cannot delete the terror they live in, but makes you feel better about the bad things that happen.
