Flight from Zurich to L.A. diverts to Iqaluit after engine shuts down
IQALUIT, Nunavut — Swiss International Air Lines says a flight bound for Los Angeles diverted to Nunavut on Wednesday.
The airline says the plane landed safely in Iqaluit after being diverted due to a “technical irregularity.”
It says a malfunction message led to an automatic shutdown of the left engine, adding that is what the system was programmed to do.
The flight originated in Zurich and the airline says it is working to get the passengers to their destination.
