A plane from Dubai has been quarantined after landing at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York after at least
10 passengers reported feeling sick
on the flight, according to airport and airline officials familiar with the matter.
Emirates Airline flight 203 landed Wednesday morning after 9 a.m. Eastern, and Port Authority Police and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention had set up a staging area to check passengers, airport officials said. A spokesman for New York Mayor Bill de Blasio also said the plane has been quarantined.
There were approximately 500 passengers on board the Airbus SE A380 superjumbo.
In a statement, an official from the CDC said the agency was working to find the cause of the illness.
“CDC is aware of an Emirates flight from Saudi Arabia arriving at JFK this morning with some passengers who are reporting an unspecified illness,” the official said.
A spokeswoman for Emirates confirmed that 10 people became sick on board.
“On arrival at JFK, as a precaution, they were immediately checked by local health authorities and those needing medical attention will be attended to,” the spokeswoman said.
Three passengers were taken to the hospital, according to a person familiar with the matter.
