easyJet Flight From Liverpool Declares Emergency Shortly After Take Off - Liverpool Echo
- An easyJet flight headed to Bodrum, Turkey, took off from Liverpool John Lennon Airport at 4:25 pm on Wednesday but shortly after departure issued a general emergency alert.
- The emergency arose from a bird strike experienced soon after departure, prompting the plane to squawk the emergency code 7700 to air traffic control.
- After circling over Cheshire for around 30 minutes, the Airbus A320-214, approximately 11 years old, returned to Liverpool and safely landed with all passengers disembarking.

- The aircraft will undergo inspection by engineers, and easyJet emphasized that passenger and crew safety remains its highest priority under manufacturer guidelines.
