Travelers on Friday's flight portrayed a frightening encounter during the 15 or so minutes in which the plane was getting back to the air terminal. As yellow breathing devices hung over their heads, a strong breeze tore through a vast opening that showed the night sky and the city lights beneath.

The group detailed a "compression issue" before the crisis arrival, the Government Flying Organization said in a proclamation. The Relationship of Airline stewards at The Frozen North Aircrafts said that the decompression was "touchy," and that one chaperon had supported minor wounds.

A traveler, Vi Nguyen of Portland, said that she awakened to a boisterous sound during the flight. Then, at that point, she saw a huge opening in the side of the airplane.
