Yesterday, a plane turned back around to Singapore just 25 minutes after take-off because of a ‘ventilation issue’. The Phuket-bound Jetstar flight 3K535, which departed at 3.03pm, landed back at Changi Airport’s Terminal 1 at 3.55pm.

There were no reports of injury, and no assistance was required for the aircraft. A Jetstar spokesman said that the pilot made the decision to return to Singapore as a precautionary measure, as the plane was experiencing a ventilation issue.

All passengers on board were transferred to another aircraft that departed yesterday evening.
