More Air Travel Drama Hits the Skies
Ryanair’s passport meltdown isn’t the only recent air travel nightmare. Just last month, a Texas-to-Paris American Airlines flight had to divert 600 miles due to a fuel leak. The Boeing 777 made an emergency landing in Nashville, leaving hundreds of passengers stranded overnight before resuming the trip the next day.
Flight tracking revealed the Texas flight took off at 1:15am local time but was forced to land barely an hour later.
