An emergency was declared on a flight from Orlando to Indianapolis Wednesday morning for a pressurization issue, forcing the plane to be diverted.
Allegiant Air Flight 758, with 155 passengers and six crew members onboard, landed safely at Jacksonville International Airport just before 8:45 a.m., according to the airline.
The aircraft was taken out of service and was scheduled to be inspected by maintenance. The cause of the pressurization issue was not immediately known.
A replacement aircraft was being sent to the Jacksonville airport and is scheduled to depart at 12:40 p.m., arriving in Indianapolis two hours later.
The airline said passengers will be given the option to change their flight and will receive $50 travel vouchers from the company.
