Delta Air Lines aborts takeoff, evacuates passengers in Atlanta
A Delta Air Lines aircraft aborted its takeoff at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport at 9:10 a.m. local time (14:10 GMT) on Friday (January 10), leading to an emergency evacuation of passengers. This incident occurred on the same day the company predicted 2025 to be the most profitable year in its 100-year history, attributing this to robust demand for premium travel and improved pricing power in the industry.
In the incident, four passengers reported minor injuries, with one requiring further medical attention, according to a statement from the airport. The runway and the aircraft were cleared shortly afterwards, despite operational delays and severe weather conditions.

00:002025 is absolutely no joke. I was on this plane headed to Minnesota. We started taxiing
00:13to leave and all of a sudden, um, this is crazy. So now we're all standing out here.
00:21We're in Atlanta standing waiting. I don't know what's going to happen if they're going
00:27to come pick us up, but we're standing out here in the snow. This is crazy. This is us
00:35out in the, in the snow. You can see that the plane is actually, it looks like it's
00:40still on fire. There's smoke still billowing out of there. But anyways, I am safe. We are
00:47safe. Everybody was able to get off the plane. So now we're just waiting, I guess, to be
00:52taken back to the airport. Reporting live from Hartsfield-Jackson, Atlanta, Georgia.
