Uh-oh. It happened again.
A United Airlines flight was diverted, this time because of a loose door handle.
The plane, going from Houston to Florida, was forced to return to Houston when it was found that the cabin door had an issue. The flight took off from Bush Intercontinental Airport. Flight 2152 was headed from Houston to Fort Lauderdale when someone noticed the cabin door had a loose handle shortly after takeoff.
There were a total of 167 passengers and crew on board the Boeing 737-800. The plane landed safely upon its return to Houston. There were no reported injuries and passengers were transferred to another plane in Houston to continue the journey to Fort Lauderdale.
It has been a rough month for United. This was the second time in two days that a diversion was necessary in a series of mishaps that have plagued the airline.
