A San Diego resident on the flight described the frightening in-flight horror.

“I was watching a movie and all of a sudden we just drop,” San Diego resident Marly Wadlington told ABC 7.

“And it felt like we dropped pretty far. It started shaking, everyone was yelling. We were all super scared.”

No passengers were injured.
