Ryanair passengers were taken away in groups after officers were called onto a flight heading to Liverpool.
A Ryanair flight from Vienna to Liverpool John Lennon Airport was due to take off at 4.35pm on Friday, August 5, when passengers were delayed after being seated onboard. Around 25 minutes after the plane was due to take off, one eyewitness noticed fire engines and police cars on the tarmac.
Passengers first thought the emergency services were for a nearby Wizz Air flight, but were then asked to leave the plane.
