Wizz Air’s emergency landing: seats soaked in blood, passenger almost died

Wizz Air’s plane from Budapest to Abu Dhabi had to carry out an emergency landing in Ankara, Türkiye, because of a passenger. Others on board described the events as if they were in a catastrophe movie.

According to Blikk, a Hungarian tabloid, the plane took off with some delay from Budapest Airport. Instead of 1 PM, they left the runway at 1.41 PM, but nobody expected what would follow.

A woman later got sick on board. She fainted, but the cabin crew calmed other passengers, saying there was professional medical help on the plane who could help the woman. Panic broke out when some of the people saw the woman start to bleed unstoppably.

Some of the passengers were shocked by the lot of blood they saw. Thankfully, two doctors on board tried to provide medical help for the passenger but were not successful. The cabin crew created a temporary examination room for them in front of a toilet, but they could not help her.

Blood was everywhere, just like in a horror movie, a passenger told Blikk. It was on the floor, in the toilet, on the seats and in the corridor. The woman’s children cried, nobody knew what to do.

Wizz Air captain saved her life

Finally, the captain decided for an emergency landing in Ankara, Türkiye’s capital. The cabin crew tried to hide blood with some nylon bags they found on board.

A passenger said there was a seat which was soaked in blood, so they needed to replace it. After the landing, Turkish cleaners came and tidied the plane of blood.

The ambulance waited for the plane, and the woman was taken to hospital, followed by her relatives. According to Blikk’s informant, the family of four travelled to Abu Dhabi to spend New Year’s Eve there. However, a couple of weeks before, the woman went through surgery and her scar began to bleed unstoppably.

The plane arrived in Abu Dhabi with a 4-hour-long delay.
