Girona-Nantes-Gatwick-Stansted

Ryanair diversion to Nantes and Gatwick

Flight FR9803 from Barcelona Girona to London Stansted today (30th Aug) diverted to Nantes after a passenger complained about an unusual ‘odour’. The aircraft landed normally and passengers disembarked. Ryanair engineers travelled to Nantes, examined the aircraft and cleared it to depart at 15:15hrs (local) with a delay of just over four hours. The aircraft will land in Stansted at 17:30hrs (local). All 189 passengers were provided with refreshment vouchers by Ryanair in Nantes and Ryanair apologises sincerely to passengers for the delay and inconvenience caused.

17:15hrs Update
After approximately one hour in-flight a passenger complained of ‘fumes’ in the rear galley. The aircraft diverted to the nearest airport (Gatwick) where it landed normally at 17:07hrs (local) and passengers were disembarked for onward transfer by coach to Stansted. Ryanair’s engineers in Gatwick will inspect the aircraft which has been removed from service for the remainder of the day or until this issue has been resolved. Ryanair apologises sincerely to passengers for this additional delay and inconvenience.

Coming soon winter seasonal routes:
STN-GNB
DUB-GNB
DUB-SZG
DUB-TRN

starting from end of December, all routes to be operated 1x.

Very strong reduction from last year, these routes have never been profitable for FR.

why would ryr put this on its website?I am very confused!!
If they are doing this,then why not tell the good paying pax,all about the decompression's of late or of the instances of engine trouble.leading to single engine landings.the flap problems....the list can go on. Just read "Flying In Ireland" about them monthly.
It seems to me that they had to report something before they have another incident like the tfs-crl flight a while back,where they tried to keep it all "hush hush" which back fired to great effect!!!

All pax received vouchers......all €5 each.(I believe that is the figure for dub airport so i presume its the same elsewhere).

738, two "emergency" landings between Girona and Stansted.

Just heard FR9803 from GRO to STN made two "emergency" landings yesterday, one at Nantes and one at Gatwick, after passengers smelled smoke in the rear of the a/c. Precautionary rather than emergency. Newspaper I read didn't have a follow-up so no idea whether anything was found.

The coach between Gatwick and Stanstead was forced to pull over after some passengers complained of fumes coming from the rear. Fortunately they were 16 miles from Stanstead, which under Ryanair’s terms and conditions is an acceptable walking distance. Ryanair apologises sincerely to passengers for this additional delay and is looking to impose a future policy of ‘no smelling’ on their flights.

<<two "emergency" landings yesterday, ............................ Precautionary rather than emergency.>>

So why does the word "emergency" appear in the thread title?

If one pax can only smell the fumes and nobody else, should the crew still divert?

Not a reduction from DUB. SZG will be 2 weekly.

In next few weeks.

Can anyone comment on MOL's plans for the new BBI / BER? Should he stay or should he go? Or will he try and use the 'old' terminal @ SXF?

@Jamie: that's correct, I meant a reduction on other ski routes, mainly from Scandinavian and UK destinations such as NYO/EDI/PIK/LPL...
Last year some flights operated just in February.

Fares on the website (FTAO DAZ211)

Change the language at the top from UK English to another English (for example Croatia (English) work fine. The fares are then displayed as they used to be.

Apologies if this has been answered before...

Low-cost carriers Ryanair Holdings Plc (RYA) and Wizz Air Ltd. are in talks to make Thessaloniki, Greece’s second-largest city, a hub for their operations in southeast Europe, Imerisia reported, without citing anyone.
