  • Ten Injured as Cathay Pacific Flight Hits Turbulence from Brisbane to Hong Kong
    May 25, 2026, 1:41 AM EDT. Ten people, including six crew members and four passengers, suffered minor injuries after an Airbus A350-900 operated by Cathay Pacific encountered severe turbulence en route from Brisbane to Hong Kong. The incident occurred two hours before landing on flight CX156, which diverted medical attention for eight affected individuals at Hong Kong International Airport. Passengers described a sudden drop in altitude lasting approximately two seconds, causing food carts to overturn and oxygen masks to deploy. The turbulence was identified as clear-air turbulence, caused by wind shear near jet streams, where adjacent air masses move at differing speeds. Despite the minor injuries, medical teams provided care immediately after landing. Cathay Pacific confirmed all injured parties received hospital treatment, with no serious conditions reported.
