國泰航空紐約回香港航班於抵北極臨時轉降-----London 航班位置圖/文: http://avherald.com/h?article=440183e9&opt=0 光轉降就耗費6小時去了. 乘客甲(剛睡醒): 北極航班怎麼變成大西洋兩岸航班了 CX: 不小心行使了第五航權從紐約延遠到倫敦了. 叔叔有説過: 要飛北極航線沒準備好,不要隨便亂闖 (誤) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~` Incident: Cathay B773 near North Pole on Jul 20th 2011, medical emergency By Simon Hradecky, created Friday, Jul 22nd 2011 16:02Z, last updated Friday, Jul 22nd 2011 16:39Z A Cathay Pacific Boeing 777-300, registration B-KPT performing flight CX-841 (dep Jul 19th) from New York JFK,NY (USA) to Hong Kong (China) with 4 flight crew, 14 cabin crew and 201 passengers, was enroute on a near polar route about 6:20 hours into the flight when one of the pilots became sick while taking his crew rest. The crew decided to divert to London Heathrow,EN (UK) and landed safely at Heathrow's runway 27L about 6 hours later. The aircraft departed London after 36 hours on the ground and reached Hong Kong with a total delay of about 44 hours. Cathay Pacific reported that when the pilot fell sick London Heathrow was the nearest airport. Passengers were provided with hotel accomodation and meals. Due to crew availability and slot restrictions in London Heathrow the flight could continue only the following day and reached Hong Kong on Jul 22nd 10:07L (02:07Z) with a scheduled arrival on Jul 20th 14:05L (06:05Z). The sick pilot was able to join the continuing flight as passenger. The spokesperson added: "We would like to offer our sincerest apologies to the passengers for the 43 hours of delay. We did everything possible to bring the passengers to Hong Kong and their final destinations as soon as possible. Due to crew availability and slot availability at London's Heathrow Airport, we were not able to reschedule the flight until 21 July. All flights from London to Hong Kong and other destinations of our passengers on 20 July were fully booked and so alternative arrangements have been very limited." -- 航空/鐵道/都市資料找不到?
