According to Singapore Airlines, there was extreme turbulence on a trip from London to Singapore, which resulted in one passenger dying and other injuries. Singapore Airlines said on its Facebook page that Flight SQ321, which was scheduled to arrive at Heathrow, was diverted to Bangkok and touched down at Suvarnabhumi Airport at 3:45 pm local time. A line of ambulances was seen flowing to the site in videos that Suvarnabhumi Airport shared on the messaging app LINE. There were eighteen crew members and 211 passengers on board.
Our top goal is to help every passenger and member of the crew on board the aircraft as much as we can. Singapore Airlines stated, “We are sending a team to Bangkok to provide any additional assistance needed, and we are working with the local authorities in Thailand to provide the necessary medical assistance.”
One person died and more than 30 sustained injuries after a Airlines flight from London to Singapore was hit by severe turbulence due to bad weather conditions. The flight, en route to , was forced to make an emergency landing at Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi Airport.
The aeroplane finished crossing the Andaman Sea and approached Thailand after 11 hours of flight time from takeoff in London. In just five minutes, the aircraft plummeted quickly from an altitude of about 11,300 metres to 9,500 metres, according to FlightRadar 24 data.
“Some people hit their heads on the baggage cabins overhead and dented it, they hit the places where lights and masks are and broke straight through it.”
Medical staff had entered the aircraft to evaluate the injured passengers, according to Thai immigration police, but they were unable to verify the exact number of casualties.
It further stated that a few unharmed passengers had left the aircraft.
When a jet crashed in Taiwan after takeoff in October 2000, it was the final fatal incident involving Singapore Airlines. Ninety-three persons perished.
