The Boeing 777-300ER aircraft was traveling with 211 passengers and 18 crew members and was diverted to the Thai capital Bangkok, where it landed in the morning (CEST).
Suddenly dropped 2,000 meters
The airline also said it was working with local authorities in Thailand to provide medical assistance. A team is also on the way to Bangkok. “Our priority is to provide all possible assistance to all passengers and crew members on board the aircraft,” it said. “Singapore Airlines extends its deepest condolences to the family of the deceased,” the airline said on Facebook.
Data from the Flightradar platform suggests that the plane suddenly dropped 6,000 feet, almost 2,000 meters, over the west coast of Myanmar. The rainy season has begun in the region. There have recently been severe storms in some areas. There was initially no official confirmation of this information.
