Precautionary landing TUI flight on Curaçao due to crack in window | Inland

According to the spokeswoman, the three hundred passengers had to get off at Hato Airport. They are looking for hotel rooms to accommodate the travelers with all their might, she reports. About two hundred people have already been taken to hotels, and accommodation is still being sought for about a hundred travelers, according to the spokesperson. “Easter is celebrated exuberantly in Curaçao, many people stay in hotels and everything is almost full. But we continue to look for all possibilities to provide these passengers with a good night’s sleep.”

It is not yet clear on Monday afternoon when travelers can continue their journey. “Safety has the highest priority, so the window must first be repaired before the aircraft can return to the airspace.”

It is still unclear whether travelers can continue their journey with the same device. That depends on how long it takes for the window to be repaired, the spokesperson said. “We’ll see what’s the fastest way to get them home. We may have to send another aircraft.”
