A Delta Air Lines flight from Salt Lake City to Amsterdam was hit by serious turbulence, injuring passengers and forcing the flight to divert to Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport, the airline said.<\/p>\n

The flight landed around 7:45 p.m. Wednesday. The airport fire department and paramedics met the flight and 25 passengers were taken to hospitals for evaluation and treatment, the airline said.<\/p>\n

Serious injuries from in-flight turbulence are rare, but scientists say they may be becoming more common<\/a> as climate change alters the jet stream.<\/p>\n

A man was killed when a Singapore Airlines flight hit severe turbulence<\/a> in May 2024, the first person to die from turbulence on a major airline in several decades.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A Delta Air Lines flight from Salt Lake City to Amsterdam was hit by serious turbulence, injuring passengers…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":107371,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[49665,3881,64,285,26137,57,3663,3669,61,67,132,68,436,424],"class_list":{"0":"post-107370","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-business","8":"tag-amsterdam","9":"tag-ap-top-news","10":"tag-business","11":"tag-climate-change","12":"tag-climate-science","13":"tag-general-news","14":"tag-minnesota","15":"tag-mn-state-wire","16":"tag-u-s-news","17":"tag-united-states","18":"tag-unitedstates","19":"tag-us","20":"tag-ut-state-wire","21":"tag-utah"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/114947524189110586","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/107370","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=107370"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/107370\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/107371"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=107370"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=107370"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=107370"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
