SINGAPORE, June 29 (Xinhua) -- A Singapore Airlines (SIA) flight bound for Istanbul, Turkey, turned back to Singapore's Changi Airport after suicide bombings at Istanbul's Ataturk airport, said the carrier on Wednesday.
SIA said via its Twitter that SQ392, which was due to arrive at Istanbul at about noon Singapore time, headed back to Singapore because the Ataturk international airport was closed. The flight is scheduled to arrive back at about 10:40 a.m. on Wednesday.
SIA added that the airline has not cancelled subsequent flights to Istanbul, but this may change depending on when the airport re-opens.
At least 36 were killed and many were injured in the bombing attacks at Ataturk international airport on Tuesday night.
