Overview
- A LOT Boeing 737 Max 8 operating flight LO6212 from Mallorca to Warsaw diverted to Milan‑Malpensa after a pilot reported feeling unwell and landed safely.
- Medical personnel, paramedics and the airport fire service treated and stabilized the pilot, and all 189 passengers and six crew were reported uninjured.
- The aircraft remained on the ground for several hours while a replacement crew was arranged before the flight resumed to Warsaw.
- The unscheduled stop turned a typical roughly three‑hour Mallorca–Warsaw journey into a delay that exceeded twelve hours.
- The event underscores how summer travel volumes on the Mallorca route can amplify operational disruption and the role of airport medical and crew‑replacement procedures in restoring flights.
