Delta Airlines returns flight due to passengers refusing
Delta Air Lines made an executive decision to return a flight going from Detroit to Atlanta due to multiple passengers breaking safety restrictions on wearing face masks. Two passengers refused to wear face masks during the flight as is mandated by all airlines in regards to health recommendations for COVID-19.
Reports indicate the passengers wouldn’t comply with crew instructions and the flight returned to Detroit. The incident caused a flight delay, forcing to land at Detroit to escort the passengers off, and continuing the flight onto Atlanta.
This isn’t the first incident of flights experiencing delays due to passengers not following COVID-19 health regulations. American Airlines and Spirit Airlines also reported a recent incident of having to escort a passenger off the plane for refusing to wear a face mask.
