Vueling flight VY3323, A320 reg. EC-HTD, from Amsterdam to Ibiza is squawking 7700 (general emergency) and diverting to ... Toulouse.

The same aircraft has left Toulouse already and is now heading towards Ibiza. So probably a medical diversion.

Now on board UA21 AMS-IAH, flight is apparently rerouted to IAD due to the conditions in Houston. Still no announcement from the crew, saw that on FR24 and it's updated on the inflight map...

Not very kind of the crew to leave the passengers ignoring the change

I wish you good luck!

LH440 returning
Oil leak in engine

LH440 returning
Oil leak in engine

Isn't that a long way to go with a leak in the engine, all the way from Iceland to Frankfurt? It's true that the A380 has four of them and can easily miss one...

The Sun Express Boeing 737-800 (D-ASXB) with the Smurf livery diverted to Toulouse.

But now this diversion is causing other diversions, as the diverted Sun Express 738 is blocking the TLS runway !!!!
