A Dragonair Airbus A321-200, registration B-HTF performing flight KA-251 from Yangon (Myanmar) to Hong Kong (China) with 131 people on board, was climbing out of Yangon's runway 03 when a bird impacted the right hand windshield and caused it to crack. The crew stopped the climb at 10,000 feet and returned to Yangon for a safe landing on runway 21 about 30 minutes after departure.

The airline confirmed a bird strike, the passengers were taken to hotels and rebooked onto other flights.
