“Other passengers relayed that they were hastily tapping out texts on their phones thinking that they might crash.”
Passengers on a Delta flight, from Atlanta to Fort Lauderdale, were terrified when their plane plunged mid-air, dropping nearly 30,000 feet in around 9 minutes.
Delta report that the flight experienced a “cabin pressurisation irregularity” during the journey. The flight diverted to Tampa out of caution. The plane landed safely there, according to the airline.
Passenger Harris Dewoskin told CNN… “Air masks, the oxygen masks dropped from the top of the plane.”
“Chaos sort of ensued amongst the passengers.”
One of the flight attendants kept telling passengers over the cabin intercom not to panic, he said.
“But that didn’t work.”
