US EditionJetBlue passengers hospitalized after emergency landing in Florida
- On Thursday, a JetBlue flight experienced a sudden altitude drop that forced an emergency landing in Florida, and passengers were taken to hospital.
- Traveling from Cancun to Newark, the flight suffered the altitude drop mid-route, and related footage from earlier this month shows a Boston-to-Vegas flight returning to Logan after a midair disturbance.
- JetBlue said `Our team has taken the aircraft out of service for inspection, and we will conduct a full investigation to determine the cause,` adding `The safety of our customers and crewmembers is always our first priority, and we will work to support those involved.`
- State police say a verbally abusive passenger forced the flight to turn around, and a trooper was photographed removing that passenger from the plane.
- The Federal Aviation Administration said it is investigating the incident, with local reports indicating the flight left Logan around 8:00 and returned two hours later.
