KINGSTON, Jamaica, CMC – A Caribbean Airlines plane en route from the Bahamas to Kingston made an emergency landing at the Sangster International Airport in Montego Bay on Thursday night.
A brief statement from the airline said flight BW62, which departed Nassau for Kingston with a scheduled stop in Montego Bay, undertook a controlled emergency landing. It did not say how many people were on the flight.
Reports said that the plane took off from Sangster International but had to return shortly after due to technical issues.
No details were provided by the Trinidad-based airline.
Caribbean Airlines said the aircraft landed safely and none of the passengers was injured.
Thursday night’s incident came three months after one of the airline’s planes crashed at the Cheddi Jagan International Airport in Guyana.
The plane broke in two, however, the 157 passengers and 6 crew members, survived.
