• Smoke development in the cabin prompted an emergency landing at Marseille-Provence Airport, where firefighters conducted a 20-minute inspection.
• Several passengers reported respiratory irritation but no serious injuries were recorded during the diversion.
• A replacement Boeing 737-8AS departed Marseille at 21:00 UTC and delivered all travelers to Berlin Brandenburg Airport by 22:42 UTC.
• Ryanair described the cause as a “small technical problem” with the first aircraft and apologized for the delay and inconvenience.
