A Turkish low-cost carrier was forced to make an emergency landing after cries for help were heard from the front cargo hold. The incident happened on Saturday on Pegasus flight 690, which was travelling from Istanbul to Riyadh in Saudi Arabia. The Pegasus Airlines flight was in the air for around an hour before diverting to Antalya, a coastal city in Turkey.
When cries shouting "help me," were reportedly heard, the pilots became concerned that a baggage handler might be trapped in the potentially dangerous environment of the unheated and low-oxygen cargo hold. They immediately decided to land the plane at Antalya International Airport on Turkey's Mediterranean coast.
