- A Ryanair Boeing 737-800 flying from Thessaloniki to Memmingen returned to departure after engine failure debris damaged a window, injuring a passenger who was partially sucked out.
- The aircraft safely landed back in Thessaloniki, with the injured passenger receiving medical care; a replacement plane flew remaining passengers after a four-hour delay.
- Similar rare incidents include a 2018 Southwest Airlines flight where engine debris caused a fatal cabin window breach and a 1990 British Airways flight with a cockpit window blowout.
