At least one person died and multiple others were injured after a plane encountered severe turbulence on a flight between London and Singapore, Singapore Airlines said on Tuesday.
The plane, a Boeing 777-300ER, diverted to Bangkok, the airline said in an announcement on social media, and landed at 3:45 p.m. local time on Tuesday.
The flight, which had 211 passengers and 18 crew members on board, had left Heathrow Airport on Monday. The average flight time of that route is just under 13 hours.
The flight, SQ321, took off from London Heathrow at 10:38 p.m. local time on Monday. Data on Flight Radar 24, a website that compiles public information about flights, appears to show that about 11 hours later, it went from cruising at 37,000 feet to roughly 31,000 feet in only a few minutes.
