Cabin crew called ahead to request medical assistance
The incident was described as a "Squawking 7700 medical emergency" by Flight Emergency on Twitter as it tracked the plane's journey from Faro in Portugal to Liverpool John Lennon Airport. The Ryanair flight FR4032 departed from Faro at 7.49pm on Wednesday, September 27, and arrived two and a half hours later at 10.20pm.
Ryanair said its crew called ahead to request medical assistance after a passenger became ill as the plane descended.A Ryanair spokesperson said: “The crew of this Faro to Liverpool flight called ahead to request medical assistance after a passenger became ill during descent. The aircraft landed normally, and was met by medics upon arrival who treated the passenger.”Squawk codes are assigned to a flight before departure, with the most well known one being code 7700.
Squawking 7700 will allow air traffic control to prepare for a quick landing and inform the authorities of any other support necessary .Flight tracking website FlightRadar24 spoke to a pilot about these messages and they said: "In most 'emergencies', we aren’t in a big hurry. Unless it’s smoke, fire, or low on fuel, we can usually take our time to evaluate the problem."
