An easyjet flight packed with holidaymakers was forced in to an emergency landing after the co-pilot issued a red alert.
There was said to be around 100 people on board the easyJet Airbus A320 which was travelling from London's Gatwick airport to Agadir in Morocco but was forced to touch down in the Algarve after a medical emergency, reports the Mirror.
The plane diverted to Portugal's Faro airport after leaving London at around 6.30am on Friday, with the pilot reportedly taking ill, and was due to land in Morocco at around 9.25am local time. A mid-air alert was issued by the co-pilot and the plane landed safely.
