Personal Injury Law

Sleeping woman left on plane in Philly for 4 hours

By Hurley, McKenna & Murtz

As a personal injury attorney, I hope all airlines take this incident seriously and take more care ensuring all passengers are off the plane in the future. After a sleeping passenger was left about a flight for four house after landing in Philadelphia, Airline officials are trying to figure out how the lapse occurred. (Philadelphia, AP, 5/26).

According to police and the Transportation Security Administration, ?the passenger didn't wake up when her United Express flight from Dulles airport outside Washington landed shortly after midnight Tuesday. At about 4 a.m., a cleaning crew found her.?

United Airlines says, ?they're working with a regional partner carrier to determine why the plane wasn't cleared upon landing.?
