Thai Airways jet makes emergency landing in Bali

A Thai Airways plane en route from Sydney to Bangkok made an emergency landing on the Indonesian island of Bali after a crack was discovered in the cockpit window, officials said on Wednesday.

The Boeing 747, carrying 273 passengers and 21 crew, was six hours into the journey on Tuesday when the captain found the defect and decided to land on Bali, the airline said in a statement.

A spokesman for the island’s airport described the landing at around 5:00 pm local time as a ‘minor disruption’.

There were no reports of injuries and the passengers stayed in a Bali hotel overnight. They were set to fly on to Bangkok later on Wednesday in another plane.
