diverted flight

A **diverted flight** refers to an airline flight that is forced to alter its original planned route and land at an alternative airport instead of the scheduled destination. This can happen due to various reasons such as bad weather, technical issues, air traffic control restrictions, emergencies, or security concerns. Flights that are diverted may result in delays and inconvenience for passengers, but the decision is made to ensure safety and compliance with regulations.
