PIA Hajj Flight Makes Emergency Landing in Riyadh Due to False Alarm

A Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) Hajj flight, PK 839, made an emergency landing in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, late Friday night.

After an inspection on Saturday, the plane later left for its destination in Jeddah.

The Hajj flight for Jeddah took off at 10 pm Friday from Jinnah International Airport in Karachi. However, it was diverted to Riyadh for an emergency landing.

Earlier, a passenger told that an explosion was heard during the flight. Upon hearing the unexpected sound, the plane was diverted and landed in Riyadh.

Following the emergency landing, passengers were offloaded from the Boeing 777 plane and shifted to the lounge at Riyadh airport.

A PIA spokesperson said the pilot received a high-temperature warning in the cargo cabin during the flight, prompting the landing in the Saudi capital.

After inspection, it was found that the warning was false. Following a quick check, the flight then departed for Jeddah.

Several air incidents have recently made headlines, worrying passengers about their safety.

A week ago, a passenger died of a suspected heart attack, and 30 were injured after a Singapore Airlines flight hit severe turbulence on May 21. The turbulence flung passengers and crew around the cabin, forcing the plane to land in Bangkok.
