THREE COMMERCIAL flights diverted to Shannon Airport from Cork today (Tuesday), prompted by Storm Jocelyn.
KLM flight 1085 from Amsterdam, Ryanair flight FR-901 from London Stansted and Ryanair flight FR-7726 from Lanzarote all had to divert from Cork to Shannon due to the conditions.
All aircraft landed safely and were facilitated by airport staff as Storm Jocelyn began to impact. The KLM flight 1085 landed at 13:10, followed by Ryanair flight FR-901 at 14:37 and Ryanair flight FR-7726 at 17:02.
A spokesperson for the Shannon Airport Group told The Clare Echo, “Shannon Airport is fully operational today with all our services running to schedule. As during Storm Isha, which saw our airport accept 15 flight diversion from Dublin and Cork, we remain available today to assist other flights impacted by Storm Jocelyn if and when required”.
