The plane landed unscheduled in Munich – the fire department was on hand. The 178 passengers and six crew members remained uninjured.

After a lightning strike, a plane en route from Hamburg to the Turkish holiday metropolis of Antalya made an unscheduled landing in Munich. The plane was diverted purely as a precaution; at no time were the 178 travelers and the six crew members in danger, the Condor airline said on Monday upon request. According to Munich Airport, the plane triggered the alarm at around 3:40 p.m.

As a precaution, the fire department was positioned along the runway, said an airport spokesman. The plane then landed normally and the passengers and crew also got out normally. According to Condor, everyone was able to take off for Turkey shortly followingwards with a replacement aircraft.

According to a Condor spokeswoman, the Airbus A320 is being technically checked in Munich. According to initial findings, the machine might probably be used in flight operations once more at short notice.
