    SINGAPORE: A Singapore-bound Tiger Airways flight from Hong Kong landed unexpectedly in Batam, according to a woman whose mother was on board the plane.

    Ms Serena Ng said flight TR2067 was due to land in Singapore at 10:30pm on Saturday night (Sep 20), but a check on Changi Airport’s website shows it only arrived at 2:41am.

    Ms Ng managed to contact her mother on the phone, and learnt that the plane had landed in “an airfield in Batam.” “My mum told me TR2067 attempted to land in Singapore twice, but failed, and she heard loud vibrating sounds from the engine and thunder,” Ms Ng said.

    Air traffic tracker Flight Radar 24 listed the A320 plane as having landed in Batam at 11:36pm.
