EasyJet flight to Bristol makes emergency landing after 'smoke smell'

  • An easyJet Airbus A320 traveling between Paphos and Bristol was compelled to make an emergency touchdown in Izmir, Turkey, on 15 June after passengers detected a smoke odor inside the cabin.
  • The crew diverted the flight due to a technical issue that triggered a smoke warning while cruising at about 36,000 feet, prompting a precautionary descent and landing.
  • The aircraft landed safely approximately 80 minutes after departure, with emergency personnel present as a standard precaution while all 169 passengers disembarked normally into the terminal.
  • EasyJet emphasized that ensuring the well-being of passengers and crew is their top concern. They confirmed that affected travelers were given accommodation and meals as needed and will be flown to Bristol later today on a replacement aircraft.
  • The unscheduled diversion followed standard safety protocols, and easyJet thanked customers for their understanding while apologizing for the inconvenience caused.
