Spoiled in-flight meals prompted the diversion of a Delta Air Lines flight early Wednesday. “Delta flight 136 from Detroit to Amsterdam diverted to New York’s JFK early Wednesday morning after reports that a portion of the Main Cabin in-flight meal service were spoiled,” the airline said in a statement. Delta said its food safety team is working to “immediately isolate the product,” and the airline will investigate the incident. Flight 136 departed from Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport on Tuesday night at 10:51 p.m. and landed at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York 3:59 a.m., according to flight tracking site FlightAware. Flight 136 is now scheduled to depart JFK at 3 p.m. on Wednesday and is expected to arrive in Amsterdam early Thursday morning – about 16 hours late, according to FlightAware.
