A flight from Denver to Oakland had to turn back after experiencing cabin pressure issues.

On a Thursday evening flight from Denver International Airport, a Southwest Airlines plane headed towards California had to turn back due to an issue with the cabin's pressurization. According to the airline, Flight 4277 was forced to make a U-turn at 12,000 feet after the crew discovered the problem. Fortunately, there were no injuries reported and the oxygen masks were not needed, as confirmed by the airline's statement.

The flight had departed DIA at 8:39 p.m. and was back at the airport by 9:33 p.m., as per the airline and flight-tracking service FlightAware. As a result of the diversion, passengers on their way to Oakland were rebooked on a later flight. To stay updated on Colorado news, make sure to sign up for our Mile High Roundup email newsletter.
