Dangerous Blunder For Troubled Airline, A Miami-bound American Airlines flight makes an emergency landing after a startling revelation. American Airlines Seats Become Loose in Flight Before Emergency Landing, The Federal Aviation Administration is investigating how a row of seats in the coach cabin on a passenger jet became loose in flight.
The seats on American Airlines Flight 6885, a Boeing 757, became unbolted during a Saturday night flight from Boston to Miami. The flight was diverted and made an emergency landing at New York's John F. Kennedy Airport.
The passengers in those seats were moved to other seats on the plane. No one was injured and the aircraft landed safely at JFK. The passengers were delayed three hours before being put on another flight to Miami.
The FAA has stepped up scrutiny of American during its bankruptcy, as it has in the past for other carriers in similar situations. AMR Corp., American Airlines' parent company, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy Nov. 29, 2011.
