Geopolitical analysis Philip Ingram MBE recently highlighted another flight that had to be diverted due to another squawk.

A Ryanair flight from Spain’s Jerez Airport to London Stansted in the UK on Monday, July 11, had to be diverted.

He said at the time: “Looks like Ryan Air Flight to Stanstead has declared an emergency and is diverting to Bordeaux.”

It was later revealed that there was a medical emergency onboard the flight.

Although no official comment was made by Ryanair regarding the incident on the Jerez-Stansted flight, one Twitter user thanked the flight’s staff for taking care of the person who suffered the ‘medical emergency’.

“Kudos to the @Ryanair cabin crew and fellow passengers on today’s flight from Jerez to Stansted for looking after the gentleman with a medical emergency…wishing him a speedy recovery #teamwork,” wrote Pauline Frear at the time.
