Delta Airlines Makes An Emergency Landing In Texas


Delta Airlines has to make an emergency landing in Texas due to the air conditioning system not functioning properly.
Delta Airlines unfortunately had to make an emergency landing into Texas of its flight for Atlanta from Mexico due to problems with the airplanes air conditioning. Delta Airlines had to consider the diversion and implement on this on Wednesday, as the plane landed in Texas at the Corpus Chris International Airport.
The officials informed that the air conditioning of airplane stopped working completely. John Hyland is the airport’s chief of public safety, who informed that the environment of the plane as, ‘being in your attic in the summertime.’
Six of the air travelling company’s passenger fell sick, however not severely, thus no medical attention or aid was required. As a safety measure, firefighters and emergency medics were available just in case when the plane landed. These people led the passengers on the flight to areas where air conditioning was available. There were 71 passengers on board and 4 crewmembers including the pilot.
The plane was having problem before it took off, however the crew was able to cope with the issue two hours prior take off. The remedy unfortunately did not last throughout the flight and the plane had to take an emergency landing. The airline later had to put two passengers in an air-conditioned ambulance and the plane was unloaded. Luckily, for the giant air traveling company, according to Hylan, none of the customers were injured or harmed severely. The later boarded again to continue its journey to Atlanta.
In other news regarding the air travel provider, video footage of a cat on the loose during a flight was captured; the crew was terrified on the plane and shocked as to how the animal managed to escape its cage during the flight. The attendants were unable to catch the cat, and made an announcement saying, “Whoever’s cat this is please come and… wake them up if you see them with the cat carrier, I need them to come and get their pet.” Finally, the owner came to calm the pet down and take it away. The footage however went viral and was shared on YouTube by the name ‘CATastrophe’.
The carrier does allow pets to travel in US but it asks the passengers specifically to keep their pets within the cage throughout the flight. The passengers do not always follow the rules evidently. This could cause various problems like the one faced by Delta’s crew recently during the cat escape.
