Singapore Airlines Flight SQ321 Encountered Severe Turbulence While En Route From London - Passengers Covered in BLOOD and One Died
The brutal turbulence occurred over Myanmar around 10 hours into the flight. One person died from a heart attack and more than 80 others were injured Singapore Airlines passengers did somersaults, left the cabin covered in 'pools of blood' and blacked out MailOnline 22 MAY 2024 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Survivors described horrific ordeal and injuries suffered on fatal flight Standing passengers caught out by deadly turbulence on an ill-fated Singapore Airlines flight yesterday were 'doing somersaults' as they were smashed into the cabin ceiling, a shocked passenger has said. The brutal turbulence, which occurred over Myanmar around 10 hours into the flight from Heathrow to Singapore, wrought havoc on board the aircraft with one British grandfather suffering a fatal heart attack and more than 80 other people sustaining injuries. Harrowing images taken on board showed how the cabin was littered with debris as distraught passengers tried desperately to stem the blood flowing from severe cuts and blunt force injuries. One passenger named as Jerry, who was travelling to his son's wedding aboard the ill-fated flight SQ321, said it was 'the worst flight of my life'. Speaking to BBC reporters with a bandage covering part of his head, he said: 'Suddenly the plane plunged... there was no warning at all, and I ended up hitting my head on the ceiling, and my wife did. 'Some poor people walking around ended up doing somersaults. It was absolutely terrible,' he said solemnly. The plane carrying 211 passengers and 18 crew made an emergency landing at Bangkok's Suvarnabhumi Airport, where medical staff used gurneys to ferry the injured to ambulances waiting on the tarmac. Relieved relatives greeted the arrivals with hugs but all were too shaken to talk to waiting reporters. Another passenger, named as Josh, said that he blacked out amid the savage turbulence. When he came to, he said pools of blood had collected on the cabin floor. 'There was water everywhere, blood everywhere, people's belongings just strewn all over the plane,' the Times reported. ![]() The victim of the fatal heart attack was named as Geoff Kitchen, 73, who was on his 'last big holiday' with his wife, who remains in hospital. It was later revealed that the grandfather had helped fundraise for local businesses during the pandemic with a local musical theatre group, and he and his wife spent the weekend with their grandchildren before jetting off for their 'trip of a lifetime'. The retired insurance worker and his wife, from Thornbury, near Bristol, were heading abroad on a six-week holiday of a lifetime to South East Asia, Indonesia and Australia when disaster struck around 11 hours into their flight from Heathrow. A relief flight carrying 131 passengers and 12 crew landed at Singapores' Changi Airport on Wednesday morning.
