American Airlines flight makes emergency diversion at Nashville Airport
A Florida-bound American Airlines flight was diverted to Nashville today, flight tracking data has revealed.
Flight 1884 landed in the Tennessee capital just 1 hour and 29 minutes after departing Chicago O'Hare on Friday morning.
It is unclear why the Boeing 737-800, which was en route to Orlando, made the unexpected landing at Nashville International Airport but Squawk Alert reports that the crew squawked the emergency code.
Flight 1884 was scheduled to depart Tennessee at 2:13pm local time and resume its route to Florida, according to data from flight tracking service FlightAware.
But that departure has been delayed yet again, with the new expected departure at 2:40pm. Flight 1884 departed Chicago for Orlando at 11:49am Friday, but made an unplanned landing in Nashville at 1:18pm.
Aviation alert accounts on X report that the plane squawked the 7700 code, which indicates that there is an emergency on board the aircraft.
Reports allege the plane experienced a technical issue, but taxied safely to the gate at Nashville airport.
The air craft was inspected by fire services, according to the reports.
DailyMail.com has approached American Airlines for comment. Nashville International Airport also referred us to the air carrier.
The emergency diversion comes less than a month after a American Airlines passengers were forced to flee after a plane filled with smoke.

But the aircraft stopped on the runway - with passengers forced to urgently evacuate.
