What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Air Accidents Investigation Branch is investigating a serious incident involving a Malta Air Boeing 737-800 on a scheduled flight from Pisa International Airport to Glasgow Prestwick Airport. The aircraft encountered severe weather and made multiple emergency diversions, including a go-around at Edinburgh Airport. After initial requests to land and refuel in England were unsuccessful, the aircraft was diverted to Manchester Airport despite its refusal. Investigators found the aircraft landed with only 363kg of fuel, sufficient for less than six minutes in the air.
