Summary

A United Airlines flight from Rome to Newark turned into a heart-pounding nightmare when it began shaking violently mid-flight, sending passengers into panic as crew members urgently told them to open shades and inspect a damaged engine. The plane was diverted to Shannon, Ireland, where it landed safely — but not before passengers were stranded onboard for 90 minutes. Upon disembarking, many discovered a massive hole the size of a bowling ball in the right engine. United Airlines assured travelers they’d be rebooked and provided hotel accommodations, but the ordeal left a lasting mark on everyone on board.
