A Ryanair flight from the UK to Cyprus had to be diverted to Hungary on Thursday following a medical emergency.
Flight FR3131 from London Stansted to Paphos had to land in Budapest.
“This flight … diverted to Budapest after a customer became ill on board,” the airline told the Cyprus Mail in an emailed response, without elaborating.
“The aircraft landed normally and the customer was met by medical personnel and disembarked the aircraft, which departed to Paphos a short time later. Ryanair sincerely apologised to all customers affected by this short delay.”
The flight carrying 182 passengers and six crew had been expected at Paphos at 4.50pm.
It was re-scheduled for 6.55pm.
