Mushroom forces plane to make emergency landing

A Ryanair flight from Budapest to Dublin had to make an emergency landing in Germany after mushroom soup in a passenger’s bag spilled out and leaked onto another passenger. The passenger suffered a severe allergic reaction to the mushroom soup causing him to experience swelling and breathing difficulties.

The pilot and air crew made the decision that the man needed immediate medical treatment and the Boeing 737 was forced to divert to Frankfurt Hahn Airport where the man received medical treatment.

The plane was delayed for two hours before being allowed to continue its journey to Dublin.

The owner of the mushroom soup has not been identified and is yet to come forward.
