33 people have been hospitalised after a Ryanair flight made an emergency landing in Germany overnight.

The Dublin to Croatia flight landed at Frankfurt-Hahn airport after experiencing technical difficulties.

Passengers on social media complained of earaches, nausea and headaches.

Those that weren't taken to hospital have reportedly been accommodated overnight on an ex-US military base.

A statement from the airline says: “This flight from Dublin to Zadar (13 July) diverted to Frankfurt Hahn due to an inflight depressurisation. In line with standard procedure, the crew deployed oxygen masks and initiated a controlled descent. The aircraft landed normally and customers disembarked, where a small number received medical attention as a precaution. Customers were provided with refreshment vouchers and hotel accommodation was authorised, however there was a shortage of available accommodation. Customers will board a replacement aircraft which will depart to Zadar this morning and Ryanair sincerely apologised for any inconvenience.”
