The plane diverted and landed safely, with passengers reporting loud noises, oxygen masks deploying, and a sudden drop in altitude. Though initially thought to have occurred over North Macedonia, the incident actually took place in Greek airspace, prompting the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board to lead the investigation, with Greece cooperating. Experts stress that seat belts are critical in rapid decompression events, even if such incidents are rare. The flight, operated by Malta Air en route to Germany, eventually transported all passengers to their destination on a replacement aircraft. The NTSB is now examining the cause, including potential engine issues and flight path data, to prevent future tragedies.
