All My Flight Attendants Have Headaches": 4 Of 5 Frontier Crew Fall Ill On Airbus A321

Frontier Airlines Flight 1046 from Cleveland to Fort Lauderdale declared a medical emergency Thursday morning after four of the five flight attendants reported feeling ill. The incident happened while the Airbus A321 (registration N706FR), a 10-year-old aircraft powered by two CFM56 engines, was on approach to Fort Lauderdale after about a two-hour flight. Pilots landed safely at 10:11 a.m., and medical teams met the aircraft at the gate. Two of the four affected attendants were taken to a hospital; there were no indications passengers were harmed. Frontier cancelled the planned return flight and another service later the day. The jet remained grounded over 36 hours later.
