You Won’t Believe Why This Flight To Wisconsin Was Delayed

Flights get delayed all of the time, but this plane bound for Wisconsin was late for a very unusual reason.

Birds Cause Issue For Flight Heading To Wisconsin

I love traveling, especially when I'm going on vacation. There are so many different ways to get places, but for my money, whenever possible, I prefer to fly. I don't want to waste time driving. I just want the time off and relaxation to begin.

Of course, there are many factors that can get in your way while traveling, especially by plane. I've sat in many an airport lobby waiting for hours until the flight was finally ready to take off. Usually, it's weather or mechanical issues. There was recently a very strange cause to delay a trip to Wisconsin for a group of passengers.

According to Brobible...

The Delta flight, which was scheduled to travel from Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport to Dane County Regional Airport in Madison, Wisconsin, was first delayed when a pigeon flew through the passenger cabin while the crew was preparing for take-off.

 

Unfortunately, the story wasn’t over yet. A second pigeon appeared in the cabin filled with 119 passengers after the plane left the terminal.

First of all, birds kind of freak me out. Especially when they are that close and stuck in a small enclosed area. Flying is already nerve-racking, so this situation wouldn't help. If the birds came near me, I wouldn't even know what to do.

Luckily, the crew was able to capture the pigeons and get them off the airplane. You can't blame the birds. Flying takes a lot of work. I can understand them wanting to catch a flight to their next destination.
