A plane made an emergency landing at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport on Wednesday after dozens of passengers were injured by "significant" in-flight turbulence, according to the airline. The airport says Delta Air Lines Flight 56 en route from Salt Lake City to Amsterdam diverted to MSP, landing safely around 7:45 p.m.

Serious injuries from in-flight turbulence are rare, but scientists say they may be becoming more common as climate change alters the jet stream.

Over two dozen passengers were injured after a Delta flight from Salt Lake City struck severe turbulence, forcing it to make an unplanned landing in Minneapolis.
