A flight from Gran Canaria to Manchester had to be diverted so that passengers could go to the toilet.
The Jet2 plane took off around an hour late from Las Palmas airport at 5.03pm UK time on Thursday.
The Airbus A321 had a normal flight pattern to begin with, heading over the Atlantic towards southern Portugal and the west of Spain.
However, just before it reached the Bay of Biscay on Spain’s northern coast the plane, carrying about 200 passengers, turned sharply east and landed in Bilbao.
