Surprised the headline didn't mention it was a Boeing 777. Points to bbc for not going for the obvious clickbait.

Why would the 777 be clickbait? 737 maybe.
The 787 has been in the news very recently for two possibly related incidences of sudden nose-down resulting in similar injuries. They aren't turbulence related, but writing "Boeing" and "injury" in the same headline is going to draw clicks.
"Boeing" would be the clickbait.
I clicked just to check if it was a Boeing so not mentioning Boeing is also click bait?
The bar is truly low is we're congratulating the media that.
