PAL Express review by Stewart 2017-04-23

Re: the aircraft (Sydney to Manila) that had a emergency landing in Sydney this afternoon. I was on that plane last night 22 April , flight PR211 in Exit seat 44k on its Manila to Sydney flight. On take off and for approximately 7 mins there was a very strong smell of burning oil , enough to sting my eyes. The hostess directly in front of me was looking very worried. I'm not sure if it was reported to the captain once the seat belt sign was turned off , but she was talking to another hostess about the issue. Maybe today's emergency landing in Sydney could have been avoided if the young hostess had been listened to at the time. Regards Stewart tattersall
