Malaysias Malindo Air makes emergency landing in Thailand A Malaysia-bound Malindo Air flight diverted to Thailand and made an emergency landing on Monday after the cabin started to de-pressurise, the airline said, adding that none of the 129 people aboard was hurt. The Malaysia-based carriers flight OD206 from Delhi had been due to arrive in Kuala Lumpur early Monday but instead re-routed to Bangkok after the incident, which caused oxygen masks to deploy inside the plane. A slow decompression was detected by the pilot, said a Malindo spokesman, who suggested it may have been caused by oxygen leaking from the fuselage. In our case, oxygen masks were deployed as a precautionary measure according to SOP (standard operating procedure). The Boeing 737-900ER had 121 passengers and eight crew aboard.
