  • On May 24, flight EZY2148 from Dalaman to Manchester was diverted to Frankfurt after a disruptive passenger screamed about a bomb and attempted to open an emergency exit.
  • Passengers and cabin crew restrained the disruptive individual on EZY2148, with three men wrestling her away from the emergency exit door.
  • The Frankfurt diversion caused an overnight delay due to an airport curfew and limited ground handling, with passengers eventually arriving in Manchester on May 25.
