Singapore Airlines (SIA) on June 11 said it has offered 10,000 USD compensation to passengers who suffered minor injuries on board of the turbulence-hit Flight SQ321 in May and will discuss higher payouts with those more badly hurt.
A rapid change in gravitational force and a 54-metre altitude drop caused injuries on the flight of Singapore Airline that encountered sudden extreme turbulence when flying from London, the UK, to Singapore on May 21, according to preliminary findings released on May 29.
The UK media on May 21 reported at least one passenger was killed and 30 others were injured in severe turbulence on a flight from London to Singapore.
