A THY Turkish Airlines Boeing 737-800, registration TC-JZF performing flight TK-1326 from Bologna (Italy) to Istanbul (Turkey), was accelerating for takeoff from Bologna's runway 12 when the crew rejected takeoff after the right hand engine (CFM56) had failed. The aircraft slowed safely from about 90 knots over ground, vacated the runway and returned to the apron.

A passenger reported through the window at least 3 fan blades were seen bent and damaged. After inspection of the engine the flight was cancelled and the passengers were rebooked onto other flights.
