Another Tampa Flight Has Engine Trouble
Remember back when flight delays and cancellations were rare? If you do, you’re probably eligible to live in one of those 55+ communities long about now. Issues at airports across America are seemingly happening every single day.
The latest issue came yesterday, when an American Airlines flight from Virginia into Tampa International Airport was diverted after a reported technical problem. That problem was later identified as engine-related. The Federal Aviation Administration made the announcement yesterday at about 4:50 pm. The flight, American Airlines 2823, safely landed at Jacksonville International Airport shortly afterward. During an interview with the flight crew after landing, investigators learned that there was a problem with one of the 737’s engines in mid-flight. The FAA is still conducting their investigation of the event and will annunce their findings when they have concluded.
I don’t have to remind you how terrible air travel has gotten over the last few years. With increasingly common delays and cancellations, smaller seats and fewer creature comforts, the entire experience has become something we’d rather avoid. But that’s not as easy as it sounds. With rental car companies raising rates and then being unable to produce a rental when you show up to get it, they are definitely not a sure thing. Reservations mean nothing these days. If you’ve been burned by the policies of car rental agencies lately, you’re not alone. Source: WFLA.com
