A JetBlue Airways flight bound for Newark, New Jersey, from Cancun, Mexico, made an emergency landing in Tampa, Florida, on Thursday, October 30, 2025. The diversion of the Airbus A320 was prompted by a flight control issue that caused a sudden drop in altitude, resulting in injuries to several passengers. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has confirmed it is investigating the incident. While the exact number of injured passengers has not been officially released by the airline, air traffic control audio indicated that at least three people were injured, with one suffering a head laceration. This incident added to a challenging day for the airline, which also experienced significant flight cancellations and delays across its network due to weather and operational issues.
