emergency landing

Passengers on a Virgin Atlantic flight heading to the UK had a very large delay when their plane made an emergency landing in Halifax.

The Halifax Airport Authority says it was around 2 a.m., Tuesday, when the flight 148 from Toronto to London, Heathrow had a reported “aircraft issue”.

Emergency crews were ready to help but the A350 landed safely around 2:45 a.m.

It was 2:30 p.m. when passengers departed to their destination.

We have reached out to Virgin Atlantic for more details.
