Paramedics at Miami International Airport treated at least six passengers who complained of bumps and bruises from turbulence Friday on an American Airlines flight from Argentina, authorities said.
At least one passenger was transferred on a stretcher, said Miami-Dade County Fire Rescue spokesman Arnold Piedrahita.
Flight 908 was making a descent into the airport before 7 a.m. when it hit severe turbulence at 30,000 feet, American Airlines spokesman Tim Smith said. The "fasten seat belt" light was on.
