Highly detailed and very prepared. In other videos i noticed how they quickly build barriers and even despatched a team of staff to escort every passenger to prevent reporters from getting close and impede their privacy. Such a well-thought out and highly efficient execution by SIA. Truly world class! And their socials were constantly updated on their status really reflects their commitment to contunually communicate for the benefit of pax's loved ones. CEO apologising, really reflects their humane side.

It didn't sound like an apology; it was an entirely appropriate statement of regret. BBC characterized it as an "apology" I certainly agree that the airline has nothing to apologize for -- unless it develops that they had prior warning of turbulence and chose not to divert. Nobody I've heard is saying that.

The CEO's apology was to comfort the passengers and the people at large, a noble gesture indeed. Normally, when an aircraft is about to hit an air turbulence, the captain would switch on the fasten seat belt sign without fail, but sadly enough, most of the passengers had failed to obey. This is a common problem among air travellers because we take the warning lightly. Let it be a lesson and be ready to expect the unexpected. Noticed that as soon as the incident took place, all the world media, particularly the Western media, were quick set in motion as if they were looking for more stories that led to the incident.

There are two things that need to be clarified. Why was the turbulence not detected and especially such a strong one and also why the plane plunged so steep for so long.

[@mchandrashekhar4043]

Yes..

[@ukmaxi]

Because it didn't plunge... I think one or two journalists saw the flightradar24 data and made assumptions as to when the turbulence occurred. The drop by 6000ft from 37000 to 31000ft happens over several minites. This implies a controlled descent by the pilots (i.e. it would have been very smooth). There is a sharp bump in the altitude data about 10 minutes before the controlled descent, which is most likely the high speed drop that caused the chaos.

The poor guy who died probably had a heart attack and may never have realised that the plane didn't crash. I was once in a plane over the Atlantic that hit turbulence and dropped for a few seconds (felt a lot longer but was probably just a few seconds). I braced myself between the seat in front of me and the back of my seat, held on hoping it would end soon. The moment I was sure we were going to crash I let out the weirdest high-pitched shriek that has ever emanated from my lips. A moment later we stopped falling and laughter rippled through the cabin. I was slightly embarrassed because I thought everyone was laughing at my shriek.
