These guys had a major bird strike ex Monastir, they then continued to BRS !!!
This does sound like a long way, but I see that this often happens. A charter suffering a bird strike on departure from a popular holiday destination usually opts to come back to the UK. Someone once explained to me that pilots, if they suspect there is a possibility of a situation developing where an emergency landing is needed, would rather make that landing at an airport better equiped with emergency gear and people; i.e. UK. They'd need to burn the fuel off anyway so may aswell burn it all the way back to the UK.
