Een Boeing 737 van touroperator Jetair heeft maandagvanavond een noodlanding moeten maken vlak na het vertrek in Dubrovnik. Reden voor de noodstop was een klapband die het vliegtuig opliep bij het opstijgen.

The passengers spent the night at the airport since all hotels in the environment were all occupied; I heard a passenger talking on the radio news VRT,he wasn't so happy.

As for the unfortunate pax at Dubrovnik: this morning's radio news had it that the tour operator did all they could to keep the pax together, i.e. at the airport, because they were confident to find a replacement plane soon. Confirmed by at least one pax (who complained of cold and only getting blankets after several hours) and the T/O spokesman.

What a miserable organisation!!!!Poeple sleeping at the airport???
The law says they have to be lodged, no matter what it takes.
Shame on you Jetair, this is the 21st century, Belgium is a developed country, passengers payed for your travel.

Oh my God, here we go again...
How many rooms do you think Dubrovnik has available during the early summer holliday... right: almost none, and even if you have some rooms available, who will you give them to, waiting for democratic voting?

You try to find rooms, if you don't find them, then there are none, or should jetair always have 200 rooms in standby for cases like this?

Very unprofessional reaction indeed.
Their passengers are dupes.
What was done to alleviate their ordeal? If JAF would communicate about the alleviation measures iso of coping with complaints they would come out bigger, better.
The choice of a tour operator is driven by price but also by trust. People will trust a tour operator who takes good care of them in good times and in bad times.
If these incidents are almost unpredictable, it is possible to allocate a budget for such mishaps. Even if it has to be incorporated in advertising or PR iso in contingency budget.
At first glance bad show, but this is the start of the season, more incidents will happen, see how they will coop them. What will they learn of this unhappy experience. Count on us to watch them....

Anything more known about the state of the aircraft?
A burst tire can cause a lot of damage to a 737

Thanks,

Jan

I'v got a question... How can you technically land a plane with a burst tyre ? Very risky, imagine if the plane skids off the runway

Each part of the landing gear has 2 wheels, can the remanining one handle the job ?

Et comme on est sur le forum des 3 langues nationales, je la redis en français : Comment un avion peut atterrir avec un pneu crevé ? Imaginez, il risque de virer à gauche ou à droite, d'être incontrôlable, bref de se casser la binette !

Chaque train de roues étant composé de 2 roues, la roue restante peut-elle supporter la charge ?

I heard the OO-JAM (yes, the ex-air berlin) isn't doing so well. There's quite some damage so it will take a while to repair.
That's why the started preparing the brandnew JAF (installation of safety related items) so JAF might already take JAMs place in a few days.
Can't wait to fly on it!

Without. I had to fly early this morning, although a very good friend of mine was on board as the purser. The crew prepared the cabin for an emergency landing (including the brace position) and I think he did a good job. I also think the flight deck crew disserve congratulations. Well done!

A few years ago I saw a SLR flight to Rhodos, I believe it was OO-SBM or OO-SBJ, making a perfect landing with a flat one.
The most important thing will be reducing the landingweight as much as possible. They flew over the Belgian coast for at least 3 hours to burn as much as fuel as they could.
After a fly-by they knew how much tires where blown and after that they made a perfect landing on 25R.

However the pilots are very well trained for this kind of problems, you still have to do in real time ofcourse.

Congrats to the flying crew who brought the aircraft safely on the ground.
