Hong Kong police have arrested a passenger from Cathay Pacific flight CX811 after the airline reported that the individual attempted to open an aircraft door while the plane was flying from Boston to Hong Kong. The incident took place on 10 December and caused concern among passengers, although the crew acted quickly to manage the situation.

According to Cathay Pacific, the cabin crew responded immediately when they noticed the passenger trying to open the door. They checked the door to ensure it remained fully secured and informed the authorities as required. The airline confirmed that no passengers or crew members were injured during the incident, and the flight landed safely in Hong Kong early on Thursday.

The case has now been taken over by Hong Kong police, who are investigating the passenger’s actions and questioning possible motives behind the attempt. Cathay Pacific said its team followed all safety procedures and coordinated closely with law enforcement after the flight landed.

The airline also reassured travelers that aircraft doors are impossible to open during flight due to strong cabin pressure and advanced safety mechanisms, but the behavior still required immediate intervention for the safety and comfort of everyone on board.

The incident has drawn attention to mid-flight safety concerns and passenger behaviour, as airlines worldwide continue to enforce strict protocols to ensure secure travel.
