The flight to Dubai never left the runway after the technical fault
An Emirates plane was surrounded by fire crews at Manchester Airport on Wednesday after passengers on board heard a 'loud bang'. The EK22 flight, to Dubai, carrying around 600 passengers, never left the runway following a technical fault. The fault, understood to have been with the engine, occurred moments before take off, at around 10am. Passengers on board claimed they heard a 'loud bang' before the aircraft came to a stop and was met by airport fire engines on the runway.
It's understood passengers remained seated on the aircraft, after it had been taxied back to the stand, for around three hours while decisions were made on whether repairs could be carried out or, if another plane, a double-decker A380, was available. Passengers were later turfed off the plane, causing queues as they were processed through passport control, before being offered a space on alternative Emirates flights at various airports across the UK.
