A Ryanair flight from Berlin to Milan made an emergency landing in Germany after turbulence injured nine passengers during a thunderstorm.
A Ryanair flight en route from Berlin to Milan was forced to make an emergency landing in southern Germany late on Wednesday night due to severe turbulence caused by a thunderstorm, Bavarian police reported.
The aircraft landed safely at Memmingen Airport, located around 115 km (70 miles) west of Munich. The turbulence prompted the pilot to divert the flight, resulting in injuries to nine passengers.
According to police, a woman suffered a head injury, her two-year-old child sustained bruises, and a 59-year-old woman experienced back pain. All three were taken to hospital, while others with minor injuries were treated at the scene.
In a statement released on Thursday, Ryanair confirmed that the captain had requested medical assistance prior to landing. The airline extended apologies to the passengers and arranged onward travel via bus to Milan later that evening, in addition to offering a replacement flight the following morning.
