A dramatic incident unfolded at Milan Bergamo Airport when a Ryanair plane’s tires exploded during a tense landing, prompting the immediate suspension of all flights. The event caused a significant commotion, as airport staff quickly mobilized to safely evacuate passengers from the distressed aircraft that came to a stop with its tires completely shredded.
Rapid response teams, including emergency vehicles from both Bergamo headquarters and the airport, were deployed to the scene to handle the situation efficiently. Passengers described the harrowing experience of smelling burning rubber and seeing flames, highlighting the intensity of the moment.
Thankfully, there were no injuries reported. The passengers were disembarked using a mobile staircase in an orderly fashion amidst the chaotic circumstances. Authorities promptly diverted incoming flights to nearby airports in Lombardy and Verona, while flights unable to be rerouted were canceled.
Investigations into the cause of the tire explosions are ongoing, with engineers examining the aircraft to ensure its swift return to service. This incident adds to a series of disruptive events for Ryanair, following an unrelated altercation earlier in the summer that escalated dramatically aboard another flight.
The airport resumed normal operations once the aircraft was cleared from the runway and all remnants from the incident were removed, ensuring the safety and smooth running of subsequent flights.
