A SINGAPORE Airlines (SIA) flight bound for Singapore from London was forced to divert to Baku in Azerbaijan early yesterday when the cabin lost pressure.

None of the 467 passengers and 27 crew members of flight SQ317, which was being operated using the jumbo Airbus A380, was injured.

An SIA spokesman said that oxygen masks were deployed and the aircraft landed uneventfully at Baku's airport at 1.03 am local time.
