South Korea’s transport ministry is set to review the safety management of all of the country’s low-cost airlines after an aircraft was forced to make an emergency return after take-off from the Philippines Sunday.

A plane belonging to budget carrier Jin Air, a subsidiary of South Korea’s top carrier Korean Air, was carrying 163 passengers from Cebu to Busan, South Korea when it turned back shortly after take-off as one of its doors was found to be leaking air.
