BANGKOK (Reuters) - A Canadian tourist opened the door of a Thai Airways flight that was preparing to take off from Chiang Mai airport bound for the capital Bangkok, local broadcaster ThaiPBS and officials said this week. "The whole plane was in chaos," wrote Facebook user Ananya Tiangtae, who was on the flight, adding that officials escorted the passenger off the plane. A passenger opened the emergency door, causing the inflatable slide to activate and the aircraft was unable to take off, Chiang Mai Airport director Ronnakorn Chalermsaenyakorn said late on Thursday. After the inspection, the aircraft was cleared to depart with all passengers and crew safe, Thai Airways said. The passenger was later seen in custody at a local police station on local TV station ThaiPBS, which identified the male tourist as Canadian.

REUTERS/Napat WesshasartarBANG SAPHAN, Dec 21 (Reuters) - Hopes faded on Wednesday among relatives of Thai marines still missing after their warship sank off the country's central coast, even as military-led rescue teams expanded their search area. The navy and air force mobilised five planes, six helicopters, and at least four warships to find the missing sailors. The navy said on Twitter that search efforts were focused on the area where others had been found on Tuesday. Families awaited news at rescue centres onshore, but some were already grieving as rescue teams flew in the recovered bodies. Including the HTMS Sukhothai, Thailand's navy has lost four warships in the 116 years since its founding.
