Passengers were forced to evacuate their flight after a ‘technical problem’ was discovered on a Jet2 plane at Belfast International Airport, the Belfast Telegraph reports. The holidaymakers were about to fly to Ibiza when the situation arose yesterday.
The Jet2 flight was preparing for takeoff when the glitch was discovered at around 09:30. The technical problems led to an emergency being declared for a short period of time and the passengers were forced to disembark and wait for a second plane.
