Irregular approach to Sydney Airport by Tiger Airways Australia

Recommended Posts

Had a few myself, latest was last year D7 from SYD -- gotta abort landing at KLIA due to strong crosswinds. Not bothersome except delayed arrival.

Such experiences can be quite daunting to in-frequent flyers. What's more when after a long haul flight, or when a connecting flight is awaiting on the other end.

Whether its the crew's decision to go-around or an ATC induced go-around, standard procedures have been adhered to by executing a missed approach when the runway is occupied. Crew have been trained for this many times and it is nothing unusual. No doubt it can cause some worries to passengers as well as inconveniences due to delays but safety is and should be the number one priority for airlines.
