A plane that departed from Lanzarote bound for Gran Canaria burst several tires when landing at 9 a.m. this Wednesday at the Gran Canaria airport. It was flight NT501 that took off at 8:15 a.m. from the César Manrique aerodrome. 

According to the official profile of Air Controllers, this meant the blocking of runway 03L. As added by the airline Binter, it was flight NT501, with registration EC-MVI, which was making this route between both islands. For this reason, a change in runway had to be made

The passengers have disembarked without any incident, according to the company. Thus, the rest of the routes continue to operate normally.
