Several passengers fall ill on plane flying into Tampa

Passengers on a Frontier flight were stuck on a plane in Tampa for about an hour New Year's Day after several people on board reported feeling sick. Authorities said 6 of the 226 total passengers on Frontier Flight 397 fell ill at some point during the flight from Cleveland to Tampa. Crew members let the passengers know mid-flight and asked anyone else feeling sick to let them know. The 6 people who were sick were not traveling together and are not related. When the plane landed at Tampa International Airport around 3:30 pm, the 6 sick passengers were removed and then held for medical observation. The passengers who were not sick were held on the plane for about an hour after landing. A spokesperson from the airport in Cleveland said there's a possibility the illnesses are connected to a drinking fountain <br/>
