Overview

  • Flight DE3665 from Corfu to Düsseldorf diverted to Brindisi about 40 minutes after takeoff following an out-of-range engine parameter, according to flight data and the airline.
  • No injuries were reported among 273 passengers and eight crew, and emergency responders met the aircraft on landing.
  • Condor characterizes the event as a reaction in the combustion chamber due to disturbed airflow rather than a sustained engine fire.
  • Unverified videos shared on social media show flashes and bangs near the right engine as passengers described panic on board.
  • With limited hotel availability in Brindisi, some travelers spent the night at the airport before a replacement aircraft completed the journey to Düsseldorf, and the incident aircraft is undergoing technical inspection.
