Two flight attendants were injured due to turbulence on Delta Air Lines flight DL1820 from Liberia, Costa Rica, to Atlanta on October 12, 2026. The Boeing 737-900ER, registration N820DN, encountered moderate turbulence lasting approximately 10 seconds while cruising at an altitude of 34,000–35,000 feet.
