    Always put on your seat belt when seated even though there is no 'Fasten Seat Belt' sign switched on

    This journalist May gave a really insightful breakdown of the situation, probably the best one so far with this incident
  • Speedy recovery to all the injured victims and condolence to the family of the deceased. 🙏

    It was a 73 year old man died of heart attack. Injury due to head hitting ceiling due to plane being rapid descent.
  • That's why it is important to ALWAYS wear your seatbelt even if the seatbelt sign is off. Turbulence may occur at times and can be sudden.
  • @elliet8406
    Thank you SQ pilots and crew as well as Thai aviation, ground and healthcare authorities for the swift action. Deepest condolences to the family of the deceased, and may those who sustained injuries recover fully and completely.

    The pilot did his job calmly as he managed to get the plane out of the red zone.

    This professional female reporter pronounces very accurate name of Bangkok Suvarnabhumi airport. She's so professional in minor details.

    For those who fly regularly over Thailand, you will know that the turbulence in that part is always sudden and severe. I am always terrified when entering that part because you will not know what will happen. So always strap in when seated.

  • @cmymotion
    Salah, the flight is from london to Singapore, not the other way... on site reporter must be very stressed.
  • Family members need to be notified first before News channel can give more info.

    I'm from Thailand, from the movie "The Impossible" Where British Family were found themselves in casualties and the insurance company takes them to Singapore for a secure treatment. Two decades later, SQ caught in a turbulence and the pilots lends a help towards Thailand. We have the world class medical center than before and among the best. Hopefully, any fellow Singaporeans who are returning home tomorrow, may wishes them a pleseant flight home. Stay Safe from Bangkok 🇹🇭❤🇸🇬 🤗

    May the one who have passed on rest in peace and condolences to the family. May those who are injured have a speedy recovery and get well soon

    Reporter misspoke and didn't realize it, it's 6,000ft, not 60,000ft. But yeah, stay seated and keep your seatbelts on at all times. It's time to keep the seatbelt light on permanently.
