Unexpected Encounter: Erin Drozda's Coyote Incident on JetBlue Flight 1129

Erin Drozda and her wife had an unexpected encounter with a coyote that disrupted their travel plans to Costa Rica. While on JetBlue flight 1129 from T.F. Green International Airport, they heard a thud and later learned that the plane had hit a coyote. The flight had to return to Providence for inspection, causing a delay in their journey.

Upon landing back in Providence, emergency crews checked the plane for damage, and passengers were asked to deplane for a thorough inspection. After confirming that everything was safe, the passengers were allowed back on the plane. The flight, originally bound for John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York, was delayed, causing Drozda and her wife to miss their connecting flight to Costa Rica.

Despite the inconvenience, no injuries were reported, and the incident did not affect other flights. Drozda and her wife were able to rebook their flight for the following day to continue their travel plans.
