Investigators have released a report on a Singapore Airlines incident that occurred two years earlier, involving severe turbulence on a flight from London’s Heathrow to Singapore on 21 May 2024. Multiple outlets report that the aircraft encountered an unexpected updraught, causing sudden and significant changes in altitude and throwing passengers and flight attendants around the cabin.
The reports describe the event as a “horror turbulence” occurrence, emphasizing that people were hurled through the cabin during the sudden motion. While the outlets focus on the release of the investigators’ findings, they do not provide additional disputed details in the text provided, such as the precise cause beyond the updraught description, the extent of injuries, or specific safety recommendations.
Overall, the coverage aligns on the same flight details—route, date, and the mechanism described by investigators—and on the reported impact on passengers and crew during the turbulence. The release marks the latest publicly documented step in the review of what happened during that flight.
