Twelve people have been injured due to turbulence on a flight from Doha to Dublin.
The Boeing 787-9 dreamliner experienced turbulence while airborne over Turkey, the operator of Dublin Airport, the DAA, said.
Upon landing shortly before 13:00 local time, Qatar Airways flight QR107 was met by emergency services including airport police and fire officers.
Six passengers and six crew members have reported injuries.
“The Dublin Airport team continues to provide full assistance on the ground to passengers and airline staff,” a DAA spokesperson added.
The incident follows the death of a 73-year-old British man on a Singapore-bound flight which experienced severe turbulence earlier this week.
More than 100 people were injured, 20 of whom are in intensive care with spinal injuries.
Singapore Airlines CEO Goh Choon Phong apologised, offering his “deepest apologies to everyone affected” by the “sudden extreme turbulence”.
Singapore’s government has promised a thorough investigation.
