HONG KONG, Dec 12 (Reuters) – Cathay Pacific said on Friday that a passenger on flight CX811 from Boston to Hong Kong tried to open an aircraft door mid-flight on December 10.
The airline said no passengers or crew were injured and the flight landed safely early on Thursday. The incident is now being handled by the city’s police force. Hong Kong’s police department did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
“Our cabin crew immediately attended to the situation, inspected the door to ensure it was securely closed, and reported the incident to the relevant authorities and the police,” Cathay said.
“The case has been handed over to the police for investigation. At Cathay, the safety of our customers and crew guides every decision we make.”
