- A Ryanair flight from Greece to Germany returned to Thessaloniki after a window shattered mid-air.
- A 61-year-old passenger was partially sucked out of the window but saved by his wife holding his legs.
- The incident caused cabin depressurization, oxygen masks deployment, and the passenger suffered shock and burns.
- The flight, operated by Malta Air, descended from 16,000ft and landed normally; a replacement aircraft was arranged.
- The report references a similar 2024 Alaska Airlines incident involving a Boeing 737 Max 9 door plug blowout.
