Today, the public relations department of Sichuan Airlines confirmed the incident to the Beijing News reporter, and revealed that flight 3u603 returned due to the closure of commercial airspace on the original route. After the application for a temporary route was approved, it took off for Dubai at 1:12 a.m. Another staff member of the division told the Beijing news that the hovering was because there was too much fuel to land.
