Halifax airport response in question after flight's fiery ...
A passenger on a recent rough-landing flight to Halifax says not only was the incident frightening, but the aftermath was poorly managed as people were left out in the cold.
globalnews.caHere’s a quick update on PAL emergency landings based on the latest widely reported incidents:
-
Los Angeles 2019 incident: A Philippine Airlines flight operated PR113/PR103 made an emergency landing at Los Angeles International Airport after possible engine trouble, with passengers and crew safely accommodated afterward. This event received extensive media coverage at the time.[2][10]
-
Los Angeles 2020s/2024–2026 notes: Several PAL emergency-landing reports have circulated in regional outlets over the years, including instances involving engine issues or pressurization alerts, but many of these reports have varied in detail, timing, and official confirmation. Some outlets highlight dramatic landings and passenger safety as the primary outcome, while investigations or airline statements accompany subsequent updates.[1][4][5]
-
Vancouver and other airports: There have been occasional PAL diversions or emergency landings in other cities (e.g., Vancouver), often tied to mechanical alerts or in-flight issues, with follow-up from aviation authorities or the airline detailing maintenance and next steps.[4]
