Singapore Airlines Flight Delays & Disruptions

[9V-SPL]

Thought it would be better to have a single thread to update on any delays/disruptions.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

SQ346|03NOV to ZRH operated by 9V-SKJ had to return to SIN following a technical issue after over 3 hours in the air.

9V-SKC is currently en-route to ZRH as SQ346D. Departed SIN at 0939LT this morning.

Tomorrow's SQ345 arrival will be re-timed from 0600 to 1155 as a result of this delay.

Oh the irony!

heard that SKJ suffered a crack window

Wondering if the entire crew is serving on the delayed flight or a new set of crew is deployed?

also if the meals service is re-arranged, supper to become breakfast, and breakfast to become lunch

IMHO, if the crews have been stranded for hours (e.g. they were not aware of the delay before briefing) that exceeds their maximum duty time, then a new set of crew will be operating the delayed flight.

Door 5L damaged by catering truck

Ouch!

[MAN Flyer]

Indeed. Clunked by an OCS truck apparently....

[FlyingDobber]

Wasn't there a thread a few days ago about how MAN would cope with 2 SQ flights at the same time?!? Clearly not...Perhaps OCS do maintenance too?

[9V-SPL]

9V-SWI is currently en-route to SIN as SQ9051 (SIA51D).

I wonder if it is coming in with a new door with mismatched paint or something?

[FN-GM]

Does that mean there was 3 x SQ 77W on the ground at Manchester at the same time?

[9V-SPL]

SQ930|11NOV is returning to SIN for some reason.
