The video shows the plane approaching the gate and coming to a full stop. The pilot and co-pilot are seen moving around inside the cockpit, and the passenger boarding bridge starts to extend toward the plane's door. Suddenly, the emergency slide bursts out, inflates, and unfolds down to the runway. More movement is seen in the cockpit, while ground crews gather around the bottom of the slide. No travelers were involved and no injuries were reported. However, passengers had to have their flights rescheduled due to the repair delay.
