The temperature has been high in recent days, and the temperature in Las Vegas, the casino in the United States, once reached 111 degrees Fahrenheit (about 44 degrees Celsius). On the 17th, a passenger plane in the United States asked passengers to wait for 4 hours without air conditioning before taking off, causing many passengers and flight attendants to faint from the heat.
A Delta Air Lines plane bound for Atlanta was stuck on the runway at Harry Reid International Airport due to takeoff and landing traffic, waiting for notice, but the air conditioning was not turned on for unknown reasons.
The US National Weather Service (National Weather Service) forecast pointed out that the temperature at Harri Reid International Airport on the 17th was as high as 111 to 115 degrees (about 44 to 46 degrees Celsius). The cabin was not air-conditioned, which exposed the aircraft to high temperatures and allowed passengers to stay in the sweltering cabin for more than 4 hours. It can be seen from the video that many passengers on the plane felt unwell, with various complaints and the crying of babies and children. The flight attendants also ran back and forth on the plane, constantly providing oxygen cylinders and related measures for the fainted passengers, but the passengers also found that a flight attendant also fainted due to the stuffy air in the cabin.
According to Kirsta Garvin, a Fox News producer who was sitting on the plane at the time, they waited for a stretcher after nearly four hours on the plane. He witnessed at least five passengers and one flight attendant being carried off the plane on a stretcher.
