A KLM flight from Amsterdam to Curaçao made an emergency landing after a power bank belonging to former CEO Camiel Eurlings caught fire—despite being against airline policy. The explosion, heard as a loud bang and visible flames, forced the plane to turn back over the Atlantic. Passengers were stunned that the ex-CEO, who knew the rules intimately, broke them. All 322 passengers were safely evacuated and accommodated overnight before continuing their journey the next day—a sobering reminder that even top executives must follow safety protocols.
