A Ryanair flight from Valencia to Bergamo in northern Italy had to make an emergency landing in Genoa this morning when the pressurisation system failed. Ryanair have issued a press release confirming the incident and apologising "sincerely to all our passengers for any inconvenience caused". The low-cost airline's statement said that its pilot had reacted "as soon as a warning light came on to indicate a possible problem with cabine pressure. In line with standard operating procedures, oxygen masks were deployed and the pilot began his controlled emergency descent to an altitude where air pressure was not an issue". Afterwards, the plane "landed without incident at Genoa airport at approximately 09.50 hours".
