The incident happened on a Flybe plane.

Passengers on board a flight from Paris were stopped from debarking the plane in Manchester Airport earlier today and had to be quarantined. The incident happened after a woman became ill on board, with police and paramedics surrounding the plane when it landed. The passengers later complained that no information was given to them.

Flybe has now made a statement on the incident, saying it was "precautionary" and it was only to protect its passengers. According to Metro, a Flybe spokesman said: "Flybe confirms that, as a precautionary measure on arrival in Manchester and following a passenger on the above flight falling sick, it has worked closely with the Public Health England to collect the full contact details from all 107 passengers on board. "This would allow them to be fully traceable if, in what would be a very rare instance, they might need to be uniquely alerted by the authority at some point in the future. "Flybe sincerely apologises to the passengers for the delay to their travel plans upon arrival and for the inconvenience experienced however the health and welfare of its passengers and crew remain our number one priority at all times."
