Southwest Jet Lands At O'Hare Following Engine Emergency

Crew Reported It 'Lost An Engine' Shortly After Departure From Midway Airport

The crew of a Southwest Airlines jet that had just departed from Midway Airport in Chicago en route to Windsor Locks, CT made an emergency landing at O'Hare International Airport after experiencing an engine problem.

Television station WBBM reports that, according to an ATC recording, the crew reported that the plane "lost an engine" shortly after departure from Midway.

Southwest spokesman Dan Landson said in a statement that: "The crew of Southwest Airlines Flight 1914 from Chicago Midway to Hartford safely diverted the aircraft to Chicago O’Hare International Airport shortly after takeoff due to reported issues with one of the aircraft engines. The ... aircraft is being taken out of service for a maintenance review.”

The incident occurred about 15 minutes into the flight, according to passenger Jasmine Cain. The plane landed safely at O'Hare, and the passengers were booked to Connecticut on other flights.
