SINGAPORE: An unspecified technical issue forced a Singapore-bound Scoot flight to return about 20 minutes after leaving China’s Xian on Feb 23, with some passengers saying they saw “sparks” during take-off.
Responding to queries from The Straits Times, Singapore-based budget airline Scoot said there was no engine fire on flight TR135 and that emergency services were activated at Xian Xianyang International Airport as a precaution.
