On September 23rd, several passengers posted online claiming that Qatar Airways flight QR881 from Chongqing to Doha suddenly slammed on the brakes during takeoff, suspected of hitting a bird. On September 23rd, reporters called the customer service hotline of Jiangbei International Airport, and the operator said they could only see that the flight was delayed and scheduled to depart at 8 p.m. on the 23rd, but they were unsure of the reason for the delay, as the system showed abnormality on the airline's side. Qatar Airways customer service personnel told reporters that flight QR881 was originally scheduled to depart in the early morning, but due to the delay, it is now expected to depart at 8 p.m. whether the delay was caused by hitting a bird?
