Several members of the EasyJet crew were injured during a holiday flight that encountered intense turbulence over the Mediterranean. The Airbus A320 aircraft, en route to London Gatwick from Corfu, had just departed from Greece when the terrifying turbulence hit on Monday afternoon.
The flight, which was traveling at a speed of 485mph and an altitude of 28,000ft, was suddenly jolted by the violent weather conditions near Italy. The unexpected turbulence caused chaos and distress for the passengers and crew on board.
According to reports, two cabin crew members who were in the process of preparing food for the passengers were thrown against the walls of the plane due to the turbulence. The severity of their injuries prompted the pilots to make an emergency landing at Rome's Fiumicino airport.
Upon landing, airport staff and EasyJet crew rushed to meet the plane and provide medical assistance to the injured flight attendants. The airline has been contacted for a statement regarding the incident.
This emergency landing comes at a time when all eyes are on Sicily, after a luxury yacht owned by Mike Lynch sank off the coast of Porticello due to a rare tornado on Monday morning.
