The passenger on the plane said, "All I know is that after the slam after landing, I saw the flames rising right away." The flight attendants desperately made a 'please calm down, it's okay'. After the plane stopped, the people behind kept moving forward, and the flight attendant kept saying, 'Please don't leave your seat.' "Even though there was such a broadcast, it was probably that everyone was panicking, and people from the back row kept pouring in to the front row."

Passenger A:

The flight attendant instructed us to sit in our seats for the time being, my son and I, as well as the people in the front row. It's just that the fire outside is getting bigger and bigger, and everyone is questioning when they will be able to get out? Unfortunately, the flight attendants didn't have a clear answer, and to be honest, I was very uneasy at the time.

Passenger B:

As long as you can protect your family, because there is no luggage, only the children do not choke on the smoke. In short, I want to get out of the cabin as soon as possible, and I want to protect my children and wife...... All in all, it's great that the front door opens. If the cabin door is not opened, it is dangerous.

Passenger C:

I felt the fire coming from the outside into the cabin. Because it was separated from the fire in the cabin shell, it already felt very hot. Smoke rose in the cabin. Wearing a mask doesn't seem to be useful, it's choking.

Passenger D:

Because the fire was burning all the time, they were guided down from the cabin in turn. When the fire was burning, I waited about 10 to 15 minutes.

Because there was no one to arrange for guidance, passengers initially had to stay on the runway, watching the plane burn out before their eyes while their luggage was on the plane. Among the passengers who evacuated without luggage, there were also hungry and crying children and foreigners who came for sightseeing, and they all looked uneasy.
