Passenger partly sucked from Ryanair plane during flight

A Ryanair flight bound for Memminginggen Airport in Bavaria had to return to Thessaloniki after a passenger window broke shortly after takeoff. The sudden pressure difference caused the man seated by the window to have his head and shoulders partially pulled out of the aircraft. Passengers witnessed the incident, with some screaming while others, including the man's wife, assisted in dragging him back inside. The passenger, identified as a Serbian tourist, was treated for abrasions but remained in good condition. Greek media reported that a piece from one of the aircraft's engines broke off and struck the window while flying over North Macedonia. Ryanair confirmed the window issue and stated the plane landed safely, though they did not confirm the exact cause. Authorities have launched an investigation into the incident.

On the way to Memmingen: airplane window breaks Ryanair plane turns over

Ein Ryanair-Flug von Thessaloniki nach Memmingen musste kurz nach dem Start umkehren, nachdem ein Fenster der Maschine zerbrach. Passagiere berichteten über einen lauten Knall und sahen, wie ein Mann mit seinem Kopf und Schultern aus dem beschädigten Fenster ragte.

Der Pilot flog die Maschine zurück nach Thessaloniki, wo der betroffene Passagier, der aus Serbien stammte, vom Rettungsdienst in ein Krankenhaus gebracht wurde. Ermittlungen wurden eingeleitet. Ryanair bestätigte den Vorfall und organisierte einen Ersatzflug, der um 9.53 Uhr Ortszeit startete, um die Passagiere nach Memmingen zu bringen.
