Singapore Airlines (SIA) said five more passengers onboard SQ321 returned to the city-state on Wednesday following the severe turbulence that hit the flight this week, forcing it to divert to Bangkok.

So far, 74 passengers and six crew members are still in Bangkok, including those in need of medical attention.

The company said it continues to reach out to its family members to provide updates and offer assistance.
