A United Airlines plane made an emergency landing in Denver Monday on a flight from San Francisco to Boston, ABC News confirmed.
United flight 354 was diverted to Denver International Airport Monday afternoon to address an issue with the slat on the wing of the plane, according to Ben Stein with ABC News.
Video was captured by one of the 164 passengers on board where you can see the issue with the plane’s wing.
The flight landed safely at DIA at 5:21 p.m. Monday, Stein confirmed. The airline arranged for another plane to take the passengers on to Boston as originally planned, according to Stein’s reporting. It was scheduled to arrive there at 1:24 a.m. Eastern Standard Time Tuesday.
Before passengers were transferred to a new plane, they were traveling on a Boeing 757-200 jet. This is not the first issue Boeing has had it with some of its planes this year.
A Boeing 737 Max 9 jet lost its door plug mid-flight, leaving a gaping hole in a plane full of passengers forced to make an emergency landing. The Max 9 model planes were grounded.
