On the morning of January 2, 2025, two consecutive emergency landings occurred at Son Sant Joan Airport in Palma de Mallorca. The reason for the incidents were medical emergencies on board two flights from Amsterdam and Stockholm. The aircraft involved - a Boeing 737-800 from Transavia (flight HV5623) and an Airbus A320neo from SAS (flight SK1805) - reported their emergencies almost simultaneously at around 10:00 a.m.
The airport's air traffic controllers reacted quickly and enabled the two aircraft to land as quickly as possible. The Airbus A320neo followed directly behind the Boeing 737-800. After landing, the affected passengers were immediately given medical treatment. Information on the current state of health of the affected people is not yet available.
The airport's control team praised the professional cooperation of the aircraft crews and the coordinated handling of the emergency. Both aircraft were able to be handled without further complications after the incidents.
