These were mid-flight diversions that many enjoyed. Although somewhat unusual for commercial airline passengers, it has occurred at least two flights this week when the planes hit an unexpected turn offer passengers a unique view Since Aurora borealis.
Satena will start flying between Colombia and Venezuela next Friday
They will be carried out on Tuesdays and Fridays with initial fares for the Bogotá – Caracas route, starting from 256 USD and Caracas – Bogotá starting from 249 USD.
It is a natural phenomenon for which people all over the world take expensive trips at high latitudes to be able to witness it. According Nasa.
Passengers on board the flight easyJet 1806, Reykjavik to Manchesterand the flight 488 from Finnair, from Kuusamo to Helsinki, They attended the show for the same price as their plane ticket. Flight tracking websites show that both planes made small circles in the air.
From now on, airlines will be able to operate regional flights with connections to the rest of the world from Aeroparque
The restriction delineated the marketing of domestic and regional “point-to-point” flights. Connections are now allowed
“Many thanks to the captain of Finnair flight AY488 from KAO to HEL tonight for making an unexpected 360 degree turn in the air for all passengers to enjoy the magic,” he tweeted. he user @KomiKirsi The last Sunday.
On Monday, the pilot of easyJet flight 1806 also made a circle so passengers could see the colored lights.

Ross Knitting he was flying to Manchester with his wife, brother and sister-in-law, and was able to take pictures through the window. in dialogue with NC, He said they had heard that passengers on a previous flight had seen the Northern Lights, so they held magazines near the window to block out the plane’s cabin lights in the hope that they might see something.
As he said, the easyJet team were amazing and turn off the lights so everyone can see the Northern Lights. His group was lucky because they were on the left side of the plane, he said, so they “took a lot of pictures before they did the 360”.
“Everyone was so excited, and many had never seen it before. We were lucky enough to see it twice during our trip to Iceland. Is an incredible experience,” added.
For his part, the user @APTGroves He thanked the easyJet pilot “who performed a 360 degree turn mid-flight to ensure all passengers could see the incredible Northern Lights”, on social media.
EasyJet was “delighted” to do so, the airline said in a statement to CNN. As explainedeThe captain “was able to perform a controlled maneuver to allow passengers to witness from the air the astonishing spectacle of one of nature’s greatest sights, the Northern Lights”.
In 2021, new information about the Northern Lights was released. A group of physicists from Iowa State University have shown that “The brightest auroras are produced by powerful electromagnetic waves during geomagnetic storms.”
The study showed that these phenomena, also called waves of Alfvén, they accelerate electrons towards Earth, causing the particles to produce the light show we know as the Northern Lights.
“Measurements revealed that this small population of electrons receives a ‘resonance acceleration’ by the electric field of the Alfvén wave, similar to a surfer catching a wave and continuing to accelerate as it goes. moves with the wave,” he said. Greg Howe, associate professor at University of Iowa Department of Physics and Astronomy and co-author of the study.
This theory of electrons “surfing” in the electric field was first proposed in 1946 by a Russian physicist.Lev Landau, and was named Pram damping. His theory was now proven.
