Three flight attendants taken to hospital after Delta flight hits severe turbulence on descent into Sydney

On Friday morning, three Delta flight attendants were hospitalized in Sydney after Delta flight 41 from Los Angeles experienced severe turbulence during its descent. The Airbus A350, carrying 245 passengers and 15 crew members, encountered the turbulence approximately 50km from the New South Wales coast. While no passengers reported injuries, four crew members were injured, and three were transported to Royal Prince Alfred hospital with minor injuries. The plane landed at Sydney airport around 6:40 am local time, and ambulances were called shortly after. The flight had altered its approach path before landing, and Sydney was experiencing strong winds, though unrelated to a distant cyclone.
