Read our privacy policy A Delta Airlines flight had to return minutes after takeoff as passengers’ noses began bleeding when the cabin failed to pressurize as it climbed high into the air. The Boeing 737-900 plane departed from the Salt Lake City airport around 8.30 a.m. and was headed to Portland International Airport. The Delta flight left from Salt Lake City and quickly returned to the airport after passengers started to have the medical problems. Valerie Walker, a retired Delta Air Lines pilot who spoke to the outlet, said the plane’s captain most likely saw the cabin pressurization issue, heard it and tried to solve the problem while in the air before returning back to the airport.
