As Emirates flight EK521 took off from Trivandrum in India on August 3 (Wednesday), they would have never imagined that this particular flight would make headlines all over the world by the time it landed in Dubai.
After landing at Dubai International Airport, social media was abuzz about an 'emergency situation' developing on the tarmac - of one of the busiest airports in the world - at about 12.450pm local time.
The news was confirmed shortly after by Emirates Airline, with a series of tweets to keep the world apprised of the situation on ground that the airline - later - termed as an 'operational incident'.
Emirates can confirm that an incident happened at Dubai International Airport on 3rd August 2016 at about 12.45pm local time.
