Plane from China diverted to LTSM due to bad weather
The Kuala Terengganu police said the plane landed at the LTSA after circling in the air for an hour as it was unable to land at the KLIA.
A Qingdao Airlines flight from China to Kuala Lumpur was diverted to Kuala Terengganu yesterday evening due to bad weather. The Airbus A321neo, carrying 207 passengers and crew, was originally headed to Kuala Lumpur International Airport but landed at Sultan Mahmud Airport at around 5:30pm. The flight, QW907, had circled in the air for over an hour before being diverted, and was unable to land at Penang International Airport due to fuel issues.
Sultan Mahmud Airport does not have refueling services, so fuel had to be arranged from either Kuantan or Kota Bharu.
