It appears to be EY B787-9 departed from CMB less than an hour after emergency landing. did you find the reason for it's visit to CMB ? but good to see B787 at CMB. Does any B787 operating a scheduled flight to CMB in Summer season? I heard SQ is planning B787-10 operation to CMB near future.

SQ would be upgrading the SIN-CMB-SIN sector to a 787-10 in the future.

As SilkAir too would be merging with its big brother Singapore Airlines after a cabin revamp, I presume SQ may either terminate SilkAir's 4 x Weekly service to CMB or else operate the sectors on Scoot since SilkAir's existing 737-800's are to be transferred to SQ's LCC

By the looks of it, it’s seems like that concoction is definitely worn by an AirAsia A320
