Is there a doctor on board? - United Airlines
BBC reports:
"A plane heading for the US was forced to land unexpectedly at Heathrow Airport after all 13 flight attendants reported sick.
The United Airlines plane from Frankfurt to Chicago was diverted to London and landed at 1546BST on Wednesday, after the cabin crew complained of feeling ill.
A spokesman for UA said the flight attendants were immediately rushed to two nearby hospital for medical check-ups, but the cause of their sickness was not yet known.
The spokesman confirmed that the 154 passengers and three flight crew on the Boeing 777 had not been affected and were staying at Heathrow overnight."
This will no doubt add more to the "sick 777" discussion. Strange that none of the pax felt ill.
