Representing Passengers Harmed on
Delta Flight 56

At Aviation Law Group, our primary concern for the passengers of Delta Flight 56 is their physical and mental well-being and recovery. Many passengers are still dealing with the effects of this terrifying in-flight turbulence accident, including physical injuries, emotional trauma, fear of flying, and other disruptions that follow a serious aviation accident.

Once you retain ALG to represent you, you can rest assured that your legal interests are being protected, leaving you to focus on your health, your family, and your recovery.

ALG takes a thoughtful and thorough approach to every aviation case. After our own investigation into Delta Flight 56, which included passenger interviews, review of available flight and weather information, consultation with experienced airline pilots and aviation experts, and research into the federal aviation regulations, airline operations, turbulence avoidance, dispatch responsibilities, diversion decisions, and the Montreal Convention, we filed suit against Delta on June 26, 2026.

If you were a passenger on Delta Flight 56, it is not too late to join the lawsuit. 

This is not simply a turbulence case. It involves questions about severe convective weather, preflight and in-flight weather information, cockpit decision-making, cabin safety, passenger warnings, seatbelt sign procedures, flight attendant safety, aircraft upset recovery, and the decision to continue to Minneapolis-St. Paul, rather than divert to a closer airport, after passengers and crew were injured.

Delta Flight 56 was an international flight from Salt Lake City to Amsterdam. Because of that, many passenger injury claims are governed by the Montreal Convention, the international treaty governing injuries suffered during international air travel. Understanding the Montreal Convention, including its application to bodily injury, liability, damages, and international carriage, is critical to protecting passengers’ rights.

If you were aboard Delta Flight 56 on July 30, 2025, or if a family member was on the flight, we would be honored to speak with you. We are also seeking witnesses and additional information from passengers, crew, family members, and anyone with knowledge about the flight, the cabin conditions, the turbulence event, the diversion, or Delta’s communications after landing.
