Delta flight from Maui diverts to Honolulu after fumes reported
A Delta flight from Maui to Seattle made an emergency stop in Honolulu after fumes filled the cabin, sending four passengers to the hospital — a scare, but no serious injuries.
- Delta Flight 395 left Kahului bound for Seattle and turned to Honolulu after fumes were detected on board.
- Crews saw fuel leaking from the plane after it landed.
- Four of the 189 passengers went to the hospital with headaches and nausea from breathing the fumes.
- Delta is refunding passengers and put them on a different plane to Seattle the next morning while technicians inspect the aircraft.
Outlook: Expect an inspection into the fuel leak's cause, with no wider disruption to Hawaii–mainland flights.
