A charter flight carrying 192 passengers from Manchester, England, to an unidentified destination in Egypt had to make an emergency landing at Athens International Airport on Monday due to a loss of cabin pressure, an airport spokesman said.
The Boeing 757, operated by low-cost airline Jet2.com, landed safely at 3:40 p.m. local (1340 GMT), spokesman Ioakeim Tsimbidis said.
Greek state TV reported that five passengers who complained of difficulties with their ears were taken to the hospital as a precaution. Tsimbidis could not confirm this.
Tsimbidis said the company was sending another plane to Athens and the passengers would resume their trip "sometime during the night."
