At 12:20 am, the plane touched down safely in Shijiazhuang. An ambulance, already waiting on the tarmac, rushed to the aircraft.

By this time, the passenger's blood pressure had soared, and his oxygen levels had dropped dangerously low.

Medical workers quickly transferred him onto a stretcher and rushed him to the hospital.

Following the emergency landing, the flight took off again and arrived at Shenyang Taoxian International Airport at 2:48 am, over an hour behind schedule.

Later that afternoon, on Feb 9, the passenger's family shared a message of gratitude: "Thanks to the timely rescue, he is now safe. Without your help, he might not have made it."

A life was saved at 30,000 feet.
