I traveled many times in 23 years working abroad i never released my seat belt while on board except when going to rest room for unexpected scenario like this, some passengers are not following the crew advised keep on your belt fastened at all times. Lucky for those seat belt fastened and very good job done by the pilot managing a sudden drop of 6000 feet god bless all flights,

I agree. Turbulance is normal and the pilot would have known about it from their onboard computer way in advance, even storm clouds are detectable in advance. A drop of 6000ft is no joke, and I am sure it is not entirely due to turbulance. There should be an independent investigation to estabish the truth so that those who are injured can sue. lol

Miss beautiful The spokesperson for FlightRadar 24 said regarding data showing a drop in height, "our initial thinking is the turbulence event is prior to the standard descent from 37,000 to 31,000 feet. That appears to just be a flight level change in preparation for landing. Turbulence-related airline accidents are the most common type, according to a 2021 study by the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board.
