Aeroflot flight SU 277, en route from Phuket to Moscow, executed an emergency landing at Suvarnabhumi Airport due to a reported landing gear issue.
The aircraft circled over the Andaman Sea for several hours to burn off fuel before landing safely with 331 passengers and 15 crew on board.
The pilot maintained constant contact with air traffic control, assuring a safe landing and preferring Suvarnabhumi for easier passenger re-routing.
All passengers were safely disembarked and transferred to hotels, while the plane was towed for inspection, with airport emergency services on full alert as a standard precaution.
