All 250 passengers aboard an Air China flight from London to Beijing resumed their journey after an unscheduled landing in Siberia, Russia’s state aviation watchdog said on Tuesday.
Earlier, Russia’s civil aviation authority, Rosaviatsia, reported that the crew of an Air China Boeing 777-300 opted to land at an alternate airfield in the Russian city of Nizhnevartovsk.
The preliminary reason for the diversion was said to be a malfunction in one of the aircraft’s engines.
