I was on the Tampa flight.
Approximately 15 mins into the climb the aircraft suddenly dropped out of the sky; luckily all the passengers were all still strapped in but unfortunately the cabin crew were starting to prepare for service and several were badly injured - at least 4 were so bad that they were unable to continue working.
The captain came on and apologised, saying that he had to take 'immediate evasion action' to avoid a collision with another aircraft 'above him'.
There was a paramedic on board who apparently said that it would be okay to continue but it was touch and go as to whether they returned to TPA (this came from a flight attendant).
One of the forward club cabins was used as an area for the injured, we know this because we were asked to move to the forward cabin to make room.
I hope that the injured crew are all okay. I've been a frequent flyer for over forty years and it's the scariest thing I've ever experienced
I'm off now to change my underwear!
