JACKSON, Wyo. — A Delta flight from the Jackson Hole Airport bound for Atlanta was diverted in flight after a pressurization issue the morning of Saturday, July 13.
The Boeing 757-200 aircraft, which left Jackson shortly after 8:00 a.m., was rerouted to St. Louis Lambert International Airport after the crew reported a “possible pressurization issue,” according to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
There were 148 passengers and six crew members aboard the flight, which landed safely in St. Louis at 11:35 a.m. local time.
None of the passengers or crew were injured, and passengers were put on another flight to Atlanta later that day.
“We apologize for the delay in their travel,” Delta said in a statement, according to Yahoo!News. “The safety of our customers and people remains Delta’s most important priority.”
The FAA said it will investigate the incident.
