Ryanair emergency landing at Faro airport

ryanairThe Captain of a Ryanair flight called for an emergency landing at Faro Airport on Sunday morning due to unspecified ‘technical issues’ on-board.

The flight, from the Spanish island of Lanzarote to Shannon airport in Ireland, touched down at Faro airport at around 9:30 and came to a halt without incident.

Faro airport’s emergency services were on full alert and all other flights scheduled for take-off and landing temporarily were put on hold.

The Boeing 737 jettisoned most of its fuel before landing as a standard safety measure.

Did this happen? We were taking off via Easyjet for Southend at 10.00 .No delay for us,or any apparent disturbance at airport. No report from press elsewhere.I might stand corrected!!

Must have been us 'Oirish' on board ... had Ryanair run out of Guiness ? Or the wheels come off the drinks trolley ?
These are serious technical issues for us ... an engine fire or part of a wing falling off is just an inconvenience. If particularly relevant to safe flight - it would be classified as a distraction.
