SHANGHAI, March 14 (UPI) -- A Japan Airlines jetliner landed safely at a Shanghai airport Saturday shortly after hitting birds while taking off from another airport, JAL said.
Tokyo-bound Flight JL8878, carrying 208 passengers and 14 crew members, took off from Hongqiao airport about 2 p.m. and landed at Pudong airport at 3:14 p.m., Kyodo news agency reported. No injuries were reported.
The airline said the emergency landing took place after abnormal vibration was detected in one of the four engines about 10 minutes into the flight, China's state-run Xinhua news agency reported.
An initial investigation indicated the aircraft had hit birds after take-off. Airport sources said the plane was being repaired, Xinhua said.
About 70 passengers had been rerouted on other flights by 8 p.m. and the rest were expected to resume their travels Sunday.
