Passengers have been diverted mid-flight after a fault emerged on their plane.

Operator Jet2 said flight LS135 from Glasgow to Rome was diverted to London Stansted earlier on Monday "due to a minor fault indication".

It said the pilot had followed "standard operating procedure" and the aircraft had landed safely at the airport in Essex.

The flight had left Scotland at 07:07 GMT and Jet2 said: "Customers will be transferred on to a replacement aircraft to continue their journey."
