Twelve People Injured in Two Separate Qatar Airways Flights Due to Turbulence

LONDON -- A total of twelve people were injured during two separate Qatar Airways flights on Sunday, May 26, 2024. Both incidents occurred due to turbulence while the planes were in the air. Flight QR107 from Doha to Dublin landed safely at Dublin Airport with six passengers and six crew members reporting injuries.

The Boeing 787 Dreamliner was met by emergency services upon landing, including airport police and fire and rescue teams. All injured passengers were assessed for their injuries on the plane before being taken to hospitals for further treatment. The airport stated that eight of the injured individuals required hospitalization.

In a separate incident, flight QR017 from Doha to Dublin also experienced turbulence while flying over Turkey, resulting in twelve people sustaining injuries. Eight of these injured passengers were hospitalized upon landing at Dublin Airport.

Qatar Airways confirmed that both incidents involved minor injuries and that internal investigations are ongoing.

These incidents come just five days after a British man died and dozens were injured on a Singapore Airlines flight from London to Singapore due to severe turbulence. Reports of turbulence encounters have been increasing, with some experts suggesting that climate change may be contributing to these events.

While injuries from turbulence are relatively rare, they can still occur and result in significant harm. It is important for airlines and passengers alike to remain vigilant during flights and take necessary precautions when encountering turbulent conditions.
