A Delta Airlines flight from Salt Lake City to Amsterdam was forced to divert to Minneapolis after encountering severe turbulence. The incident resulted in multiple injuries, with some passengers requiring hospital treatment.
Airlines are now intensifying their safety protocols following the incident, as turbulence remains a significant concern for air travel. Investigators are currently examining the cause of the turbulence to determine if it was due to weather conditions or mechanical failure. The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is involved in the inquiry.
The affected passengers have been transferred to medical facilities for further evaluation. Airlines are also advising passengers to remain seated during flights to minimize the risk of injury during turbulence.
