Among the injured were crew members and passengers, but the airline has not disclosed the extent of the injuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Delta also stated that Customs and Border Protection officials ensured that passengers requiring medical attention were properly processed and cleared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Climate change is making some types of turbulence more frequent and severe, so it is important to
