A woman from Adelaide was left paralyzed after a Singapore Airlines flight she was on experienced severe turbulence. This unfortunate incident resulted in the death of one passenger and injuries for several others. The woman has bravely come forward to share her story and her ongoing struggle for proper compensation.
In a recent development, a new investigation into the mid-air emergency has raised questions about whether it could have been prevented. In a matter of mere seconds, Kerry Jordan's life was changed forever. She recalls a man asking her if she could feel her legs, to which she could only respond with a heartbreaking "no."
Kerry and her husband Keith Davis were returning home to Australia from the UK on board Singapore Airlines Flight 321 when they experienced a terrifying altitude drop due to severe turbulence. Kerry and many other passengers were thrown out of their seats, causing chaos and panic on the flight. The couple, along with others, truly thought they were facing their final moments.
It has been four months since the incident, and Kerry, a dance teacher, remains paralyzed from the chest down. She is currently living in a hospital and facing a long road to recovery. This life-altering event, as revealed by a special investigation on Nine's 60 Minutes, could potentially have been avoided.
Kerry and Keith are receiving support from former senator and lawyer Nick Xenophon, who is advocating for fair compensation for their ordeal. He believes that the $75,000 offered by the airline is insulting and does not cover the extent of their suffering. As he points out, Singapore Airlines made a profit of close to $3 billion last year, and they should be held accountable for not taking all necessary measures to ensure the safety of their passengers.
The full investigation into this harrowing incident will be aired on 60 Minutes tonight. It is a reminder of the importance of prioritizing safety and taking responsibility for one's actions, especially when it comes to the well-being of others. Let us hope that justice is served for Kerry and all those affected by this traumatic experience.
