On 10 September, a Ryanair Boeing 737-800 operated flight FR4754 between Tenerife South Airport, Spain and Bristol, United Kingdom. While flying north, at 26,000 feet and just south of the Portuguese, Spanish coast, the pilots requested a diversion towards Malaga, Spain after a technical problem.
Emergency services awaited the aircraft, which safely landed at runway 13. The runway has enough length for a safe landing, Spanish air traffic control tweeted.
Five hours after landing at Malaga, the aircraft continued to operate with a flight towards Cork, United Kingdom.
