Alaska Airlines flight attendants reported feeling ill after an unidentifiable odor was detected in a cabin, causing a diversion prior to hospitalization.
Four Alaska Airlines flight attendants were sent to the hospital after reporting feeling ill, causing a flight diversion. Alaska Airlines Flight 810 was headed from Lihue , Hawaii, to Seattle on Thursday night. Instead, it landed in Honolulu about an hour and a half after takeoff, according to flight tracking website FlightAware. Crews reported becoming sick after an unidentifiable odor was detected in the cabin, according to USA TODAY.
None of the pilots or guests on board required medical attention, according to FOX 13. All guests were provided new accommodations by the airline on other flights to Seattle. The plane, a Boeing 737-800 according to FlightAware, was flown without passengers back to Seattle for further inspection. It is not known what the odor was that was detected, nor what the flight attendants' conditions were after being evaluated at a hospital.
