In a turn of events, an easyJet flight from London Gatwick to Dalaman, Turkey, was forced to return to Gatwick shortly after takeoff Tuesday morning due to technical issues.
The flight, operated by an Airbus A320 with registration G-EZPB, departed Gatwick Airport at 8.15am on Tuesday, May 14, 2024. The scheduled flight time to Dalaman was nearly four hours. However, as the aircraft crossed the English Channel, the pilots detected engine issues, prompting immediate action.
