WINDSOR LOCKS, CT - The Hartford Courant reported that federal investigators are looking into an incident Monday in which a Southwest Airlines plane attempted to land several times at Bradley International Airport, damaging the plane's right wing. The high winds led to severe turbulence causing several frightened passengers to vomit.

The flight eventually landed in Warwick, R.I., according to the Courant. The airline will conduct an internal investigation of the flight. Southwest apologized to passengers and offered ticket refunds and vouchers for future flights.

In a separate incident, an American Airlines flight turned around shortly after takeoff from Bradley on Tuesday. Smoke was reported in the cockpit and three passengers were treated for smoke inhalation.

The FAA is also investigating this incident.
