All safe as PAL Osaka flight makes emergency landing in Manila
Philippine Airlines Flight PR 412 bound for Kansai, Japan made a safe emergency landing in Manila on September 3 after a mid-flight pressurization alert.
insiderph.comHere’s the latest on PAL emergency landings based on recent reporting.
PAL flight PR102 emergency landing in Los Angeles (PR102 and related flights in early 2025-2026 reporting). Reports described a "perfect" emergency landing after tire issues during approach at LAX; the plane had 418 passengers and two blown tires, with a later schedule update for the return to Manila. The incident was widely covered by Philippine and US outlets, noting passengers and crew were safe and that the tires would be repaired before resuming service.[1]
Other PAL emergency landings in 2024–2025 included Manila recoveries after in-flight pressurization or smoke alerts (e.g., PAL PR412 to Manila from Kansai and other diversions). PAL issued statements that all passengers and crew were safe, with emergency procedures activated and aircraft returning to a safe airport for inspection.[2]
Imports on pressurization and smoke events: reports indicate PAL flights redirected to safer airports (e.g., Haneda/Tokyo or Vancouver) when in-flight systems indicated issues such as smoke or depressurization; authorities and PAL stated the aircraft landed safely and that cautionary measures were followed, with passengers supported on arrival.[5][7][9]
