Condor's D-ABUD diverts to Shannon

Today's Condor flight CFG 248, routing Frankfurt - Puerto Plata in the Dominican Republic diverted into Shannon this evening with an unruly passenger. The flight operated by B767-330ER, D-ABUD,  msn 26983 touched down on R24 at 17.20z with a fuel load of 28 tonnes. Prior to arrival the aircraft had spent approximately 30 minutes in the Ennis hold burning fuel in preparation for landing. The flight departed the airport again at approximately 19.00z. Pictured above, D-ABUD is seen on finals to R24 where it was met by airport fire and rescue vehicles, a precaution in the event of an aircraft dumping fuel.
