Summary
A Cathay Pacific flight from Brisbane to Hong Kong plunged into sudden, violent turbulence mid-meal, sending food, drinks, and passengers flying—leaving ten injured, eight hospitalized. Passengers described chaos and terror, while serving cabin crew were hit hardest. The plane likely encountered a hidden storm cell in darkness, and four doctors onboard helped stabilize victims. Cathay Pacific is investigating and supporting those affected, serving as a stark reminder that even modern flights can face unpredictable turbulence—always buckle up, especially during service.
