The flight took off from the Oakland International Airport around 7 p.m. Monday night and after two attempts to land in Burbank, the flight had to turn around, landing back in Oakland around 9 p.m.
“The second time I thought, ‘OK I think we're going to get this one’ because I could really see the runway, probably less than 100 feet, we were really close,” he said. “But because there was a lot of wind, there was turbulence.” Sign up for NBC Bay Area’s Housing Deconstructed newsletter.They both commended the crew on board, including the pilot, saying they were very complimentary and kept it together.
The suspense is killing us! WHERE THE SW FLIGHT THAT DID NOT REACH ITS DESTINATION?!!!
What a misleading headline. Of course we all thought the plane crashed. Ridiculous.
Had a flight from LAX to SFO that made a U-turn over Atascadero because 'it was too dangerous to continue' on Wednesday then got canceled. It didn't make the news. Why the click bait headline if it was just a U-turn. There was also an American Airline flight that had this happen.
I wonder if these news people passed the elementary school at least, so uneducated when it comes to headlines.
Pathetic attempt for attention. Should be ashamed of yourselves
Fear mongering, clickbait headline. Change it.
Delete this headline. People are thinking the plane crashed.
I wonder why they couldn’t land at LAX? The runways are much longer. I do commend the crew’s decision.
Not really news
Horrible headline. Fix it: 'Southwest Airlines flight from Oakland to Burbank forced to turn back due to extreme weather'. 'never made it' implies the plane crashed. Don't f*** with people for clicks.
I’m blocking because of this click bait headline. I thought it was like when the spaceship crashed 🚀
Great call! No need to jeopardize ppl lives
Where is it?
It never landed 👀
