Miami-Bound Scandinavian Airlines Flight Diverts to Copenhagen Due to Severe Turbulence, Video Shows Screaming Passengers Lifted Into Air
A Scandinavian Airlines flight from Stockholm to Miami diverted to Copenhagen after severe turbulence over Greenland caused chaos in the cabin. No injuries were reported, but inspections required rerouting. Passengers were provided hotels and rebooked flights, with videos showing belongings and passengers lifted during the terrifying incident.
A Miami-bound Scandinavian Airlines flight from Stockholm was forced to divert back to Copenhagen after encountering severe turbulence over Greenland on Thursday night. Dramatic footage showed passengers screaming as belongings, food, and drinks were flung into the air. One passenger captured a woman’s feet nearly touching the cabin ceiling, posting on TikTok with the caption, “Thought we would die.” The plane, which departed Stockholm at 12:55 PM local time, made an emergency U-turn following the turbulence for a thorough inspection in Copenhagen, as Miami lacks necessary facilities for such evaluations. A Scandinavian Airlines spokesperson confirmed no severe injuries but emphasised that safety protocols required inspection to avoid extended delays and multiple cancellations. Passengers were provided with hotel accommodations overnight and rebooked on alternate flights the next morning.
