A flight attendant recalls a diversion 25 years ago. Sharlene Bowen was on a flight from Frankfurt, Germany, when it was diverted. This flight normally travels to its destination in about nine hours. Bowen saw images of a major event in Canada, where the flight was diverted. She found the images hard to believe.

The diversion occurred after a significant event led to the closure of American airspace. A former flight attendant is now sharing her experience.

Further details about the experience are available from the source, including the flight attendant's reaction to the event.
