I just read about United flight UA446 from Newark to Vegas that had to make an emergency landing in Denver after a medical situation onboard. The Boeing 737 MAX 8 was cruising over Nebraska when the pilots declared squawk 7700 and quickly rerouted. I’ve been in a similar situation before, and reading this brought all those memories flooding back. It’s wild how fast things can shift in the air and how calmly the crew manages the chaos.
On my flight, someone fainted mid-cabin and the panic was instant. The flight attendants snapped into action and made everyone feel secure, even as we diverted. I remember sitting there wondering what would happen next. Have any of you ever gone through a similar experience? Would love to hear how it played out for you.
