A WestJet flight experienced a turbulent landing at Princess Juliana International Airport in Saint Martin on Sunday. Witnesses captured online footage of the Boeing 737 aircraft appearing to make a hard landing and skidding down the runway. Despite the scare, emergency services swiftly responded by deploying foam as a precaution. Passengers and crew were safely evacuated using the aircraft’s slides and transported to the terminal, with no reported injuries.
WestJet assured that all guests were accounted for and expressed gratitude for the swift response. The airline is currently awaiting official confirmation on the incident’s details and is collaborating with local authorities. The flight, which took off from Toronto in the morning, arrived in Saint Martin in the early afternoon.
