11 people were hospitalized after experiencing severe turbulence on Delta Air Lines flight 175, which was en route from Milan to Atlanta. The incident prompted Delta’s Care Team to mobilize in order to offer assistance to both the customers and crew affected by the turbulence.
The airline expressed their gratitude towards the first responders who promptly provided medical attention to the injured passengers and facilitated their transportation to the necessary medical facilities. Delta did not disclose the extent of the injuries sustained during the turbulent flight.
Furthermore, the Customs and Border Protection officials ensured that passengers in need of medical attention were promptly processed appropriately upon arrival in Atlanta.
This incident highlights the potential dangers associated with climate change. As global temperatures rise, certain types of turbulence are becoming increasingly frequent and severe. It serves as a reminder of the importance of keeping seatbelts fastened, as doing so can significantly reduce the chances of sustaining injuries during instances of unexpected turbulence.
