An Ethiopian Airlines Boeing 787 Dreamliner flying from Addis Ababa to Mumbai had to make an emergency landing due to cabin depressurization.
A Mumbai-bound Ethiopian Airlines flight from Addis Ababa made an emergency landing in the city at 1.42 am on Friday after the Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft experienced a depressurization problem. Seven passengers were attended to by the airport medical team for decompression-related symptoms, with one requiring hospitalization.
The incident occurred on flight ET640 over the Arabian Sea when the aircraft was cruising at 33,000 feet. The pilots executed a rapid descent to a lower altitude after cabin depressurization.
Aircraft cabins are pressurized to provide oxygen for passengers at high altitudes. In case of a pressurization system failure, oxygen masks deploy for passenger safety.
