The MD-83 aircraft, en-route to Putna Gorda in Florida, from Asheville, North Carolina, had to divert because of bad weather conditions.

According to Allegiant, the pilot had to declare emergency before landing when an “indicator light” indicated a “maintenance issue” in the plane.

The plane, carrying 146 passengers and 6 crew members, landed uneventfully.

The passengers were adjusted in a replacement flight.

The issue is being investigated.
