JetBlue passengers and fail landing attempts

A disturbing video filmed aboard a JetBlue aircraft showed passengers scrambling to get off the plane in Newark, saying that they were afraid after multiple failed attempts to land at JFK Airport due to bad weather.

“I’m not going back in the air,” one passenger is heard shouting at cabin crew.

Another guy is seen asking to get off the plane, which the airline claimed was set to land at JFK on Thursday following a flight from Cancun, Mexico.

“My kids are panicking,” the man shouts. “We gotta get off this plane. It’s dangerous!

“We tried to land four times already … we’re scared to fly, we wanna get off! I don’t want to go to jail but it’s not right,” he said.

“I don’t care about JFK — it’s our lives! People are sick back there, people are fainting, people are throwing up! A little respect for human beings!” The man continues while other passengers express their want to exit.

According to JetBlue spokesperson Derek Dombrowski, Flight 1852 was diverted to Newark Liberty International Airport “due to weather” above JFK.

“Without proper customs processing available for the flight at Newark, the aircraft remained on the ground for 60 minutes and once the weather cleared departed again for JFK where it safely landed,” he said in an email.

“We apologize for the inconvenience this weather-related diversion created,” Dombrowski added.

According to reports, the airline provided passengers $50 in travel credits as compensation for the inconvenience.
