An easyJet flight made a 360-degree turn to allow its passengers to watch an "amazing display" of the northern lights as it flew over the northern tip of the UK.
On Monday evening, passengers on flight U21806 from Reykjavik in Iceland to Manchester Airport were able to take pictures of the celestial spectacle after the pilot decided to perform the circular turn.
