More trouble for Ryanair

The budget airline had to make two emergency landings on Friday to technical breakdowns.

One of the flights had to land at the airport of Bergamo in Lombardy (northern Italy) while covering the route of the Croatian town of Pola and Rygge airport in the Norwegian capital, Oslo. Apparently the fault was originated in an engine.

The other flight was from Madrid to the Canary Islands and suffered a depressurization, causing a stir among the passengers. The plane had to return to Madrid and at least 16 people had to be treated for ear discomfort and severe headaches.
