Two people were transported to local hospitals after a Delta flight made an emergency landing in Boston due to inclement weather Wednesday night, the airline confirms.
Some passengers on Delta flight 271 reported nausea and possible injuries due to turbulence while approaching New York, causing the plane to make the unscheduled landing. According to Boston EMS, one person was transported to Massachusetts General Hospital with minor injuries. Another is being transported to the same hospital for treatment of motion sickness.
The aircraft, which departed from Paris and was set to land at Newark Liberty International Airport, is expected to re-depart for New York shortly. A total of 191 people are on board.
According to Massport, Massport Fire and Boston EMS are on stand-by at Logan in case any additional passengers need to be evaluated.
