A Delta Air Lines flight overturned upon landing at Saskatoon International Airport in Canada, leaving passengers in shock but miraculously unhurt. The incident occurred as the Bombardier CRJ-200 jet, carrying 80 passengers and crew, touched down on an icy runway after a flight from Calgary. Despite the dramatic accident, authorities confirmed that everyone on board survived.
According to airport officials, the aircraft skidded off the runway due to slippery conditions, causing it to tip over onto its roof. Emergency responders quickly arrived at the scene, ensuring a safe evacuation of all passengers. While some minor injuries were reported, there were no serious casualties.
Passengers described a terrifying experience as the plane lost control during landing. “It all happened so fast. The next thing we knew, we were upside down,” said one traveler. Many credited the cabin crew’s quick response for preventing panic and helping them exit the overturned aircraft safely.
Authorities have launched an investigation to determine the exact cause of the accident. Initial reports suggest that icy conditions and possible braking issues may have played a role. Aviation experts will examine flight data and weather conditions to assess whether additional safety measures are needed.
Delta Air Lines issued a statement expressing relief that all passengers were safe and thanking emergency responders for their swift action. The airline assured travelers that they are fully cooperating with authorities and will take necessary steps to prevent future incidents.
