One passenger was killed and another was injured after a Singapore Airlines plane encountered severe turbulence.
A Singapore Airlines plane from London made an emergency landing in Bangkok due to severe turbulence, killing one passenger. This was reported by the BBC on Tuesday, May 21.
Flight SQ 321, a Boeing 777-300ER, was carrying 211 passengers and 18 crew members. The plane was bound for Singapore but was diverted to Bangkok.
The exact cause of death of the passenger on board the plane has not yet been clarified.
The airline said it was working with Thai authorities to provide medical assistance to passengers.
Turbulence is part of flying – but serious incidents are rare. Although this is a seasonal phenomenon, chaos can occur anywhere and under any conditions.
Let’s recall that last year a plane flying from Frankfurt encountered severe turbulence near the island of Madagascar. As a result, 17 passengers were injured.
