Pope Leo experienced travel disruptions following his visit to Spain when his chartered Iberia flight from Tenerife to Rome developed engine trouble. The Pope and other passengers were forced to disembark the aircraft while awaiting a resolution. Spanish King Felipe VI, having recently bid farewell to the Pope, offered the use of a Spanish Air Force plane for the remainder of the journey. The Spanish government confirmed the King’s intervention to facilitate the papal return. The flight is expected to arrive in Rome this evening at 11 PM local time. Iberia stated a replacement aircraft was arranged for the Pope’s traveling party, including Vatican staff and journalists. The Pope’s Spanish visit included stops in Madrid, Barcelona, and the Canary Islands, where migration issues were a key focus.
