JetBlue Plane Diverts To Orlando

Emergency Slide Deployed Inside The Plane In Flight

A JetBlue flight from Fort Myers, FL to Boston, MA was diverted to Orlando Wednesday after one of the plane's emergency slides was activated inside the cabin during the flight.

The FAA says that the Embraer E-190 operating as JetBlue Flight 1266 landed safely at Orlando International Airport about 1540 EST.

CNN reports that the reason the slide deployed inside the cabin is not known. None of the 71 passengers or four crewmembers on the flight was injured in the incident.

The NTSB has not yet determined whether it will be necessary to open an investigation into why the slide deployed in flight.
