Pesawat dari China dilencong ke LTSM akibat cuaca buruk
Polis Kuala Terengganu berkata pesawat itu mendarat di LTSM selepas sejam berlegar di udara kerana tak dapat mendarat di KLIA.
Kuala Terengganu Police Chief Azli Mohd Noor revealed that an Airbus A321neo flight from China to Kuala Lumpur had to be diverted to Kuala Terengganu (LTSM) on the evening of yesterday due to severe weather conditions. The aircraft, carrying 207 passengers and crew, was originally scheduled to land at the international Kuala Lumpur airport (KLIA) but was forced to make an emergency landing at LTSM after spending more than an hour in the air due to the adverse weather, as reported by Bernama.
The flight, QW907 operated by Qingdao Airlines, landed safely at LTSM around 5:30 pm yesterday after being unable to divert to the international Pulau Pinang airport (LTAAP) due to a fuel shortage. Given that LTSM does not have facilities for refueling, the aircraft's fuel supply had to be managed either from Kuantan in Pahang or Kota Bharu in Kelantan, as stated by the police chief.
