On January 28, an Airbus A330 passenger jet, bearing the registration number C-GUBF and operated by Air Transat, was en route on Flight TS-187 when it was compelled to enter a holding pattern at an altitude of 26,000 feet owing to inclement weather. Throughout this period, the flight crew reported being in a minimum - fuel state. Initially, they transmitted a 'PAN PAN' emergency signal. Subsequently, anticipating further delays, they escalated the emergency to the highest - level distress call, 'MAYDAY', and ultimately decided to divert to Hamilton International Airport. Roughly 50 minutes after issuing the distress signal, the aircraft touched down safely, with a mere 3,420 kilograms of fuel still on board—a quantity falling short of the 3,900 kilograms that the crew had calculated as the minimum required fuel.
