‘Severe turbulence’ on Hawaiian Airlines flight sends passengers flying out of seats

A Hawaiian Airlines flight experienced turbulence over the weekend so strong that it sent people flying out of their seats, injuring several flight attendants and passengers, including three who were hospitalized.

Five hours into an 11-hour flight from Honolulu to Sydney, Australia, on Friday, the plane began to experience “unexpected severe turbulence,” the Guardian reported.

“The plane just dropped. We weren’t prepared.” Sultan Baskonyali, a passenger aboard the chaotic flight, told ABC News.

The extreme turbulence caused the ceiling of the plane to bust open and oxygen masks to deploy, leaving passengers in a tizzy.

Amid the frenzy, some travelers shot out of their seats, banging their heads on the roof of the plane.
