Emirates Plane Makes Emergency Landing in Karachi, Pakistan
Emirates flight EK-522 had to make an emergency landing in Karachi, Pakistan, on February 14.
The Boeing 777-200, en-route from Dubai, United Arab Emirates, to Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, India, was diverted after the crew needed to shut down its left hand engine.
The plane landed uneventfully. There were 170 people aboard at the time; all of them remained unhurt.
The airline arranged a replacement plane for the passengers.
