Shannon Airport temporarily suspends operations

LONDON – Shannon Airport in western Ireland has temporarily suspended operations after an Omni Air International Boeing 767-300 was involved in an incident during takeoff.

Omni says in a tweet that everyone on the plane has disembarked. There were no reports of serious injuries.

Airport officials are working to remove the aircraft from the site of the incident — a process they said could take “some time.”

The airport said in a tweet Thursday that passengers should check with their airline before travelling.
