Drama unfolds at 8,000-meter altitude as A380 plane door opens on Bangkok-Hong Honk flight

A British tourist complained about his flight from Bangkok to Hong Kong, which has turned into a horror journey when a door opened at 8,000 meters altitude.

David Reid and his son, Lewis, feared that a bomb exploded after hearing a “massive explosion” two hours after takeoff inside the Airbus A380 super jumbo operated by “Emirates Airlines”.

Both temperature and cabin pressure fell dramatically after the emergency door of the business class section opened nearly 4 centimeters, leaving a gaping hole in the plane, said David Reid, according to the DailyMail.

People were left in shock as a stewardess ran up the aisle before screaming on the intercom that the door will break. “The door’s going to go, the door’s going to go!” After her “heroic” announcement she hid under her chair.

Some passengers were crying and saying “We’re going to go down, we’re going to go down.”

“It was a general chaos. The emergency door was ajar and you could see straight out into the atmosphere, 8000 meters (27,000 feet) up.”

Surprisingly, according to Mr. Reid, instead of making an emergency landing, the crew decided to fill the hole with blankets and pillows then stuck them with gaffer tape and continued the flight, despite the awful noise and below zero temperatures.

The dramatic incident took place on Monday while the British flew from Bangkok to Hong Kong.

Opening of an aircraft door in mid flight is considered an emergency situation, as it leads to a sudden loss of cabin pressure. Apparently pilots treated case was treated as an exception.

A representative for Emirates said in a statement: “We confirm there was a whistling noise released from one of the doors on the A380 upper deck on flight EK384 from Bangkok to Hong Kong on Monday, February 11, 2013. At no point was the safety of the flight and passengers in danger.”

Conflictual statements:
An Airbus spokesperson expresses instead a different approach: “It is not possible for a cabin door to open on an A380 or on any aircraft while in flight, as doors open inwards and have locking mechanisms.”

Following Airbus’s statement, Emirates later updated their response to Mr Reid’s complaint, saying : “At no moment during the flight did one of the upper deck doors open. There was also no loss in cabin pressurisation at any time during the flight. The noise from the door was caused by a small dimensional difference between the inflated door seal and the door lower frame striker plate, when the door is in the closed position.”
