Passengers were told, “Stay down, heads down” as the flight came to landing back in Brisbane.

One of the passengers aboard the flight, Tudor Vasile told Bill McDonald that about 40 minutes into the flight, the Captain told passengers “the brake lights had been triggered meaning that the brakes are locked in place.”
