2:04Now PlayingThe Federal Aviation Administration issued a full ground stop at Newark Liberty International Airport on Wednesday after an apparent aircraft emergency.
Flights out of the airport have now resumed.
A flight heading to West Palm Beach at 5:43 p.m. earlier today, Feb. 18, immediately returned to the airport due to engine failure, Port Authority tells FOX 5 NY.
The plane landed safely. There are no injuries reported at this time.
JetBlue provided a statement to FOX 5 NY:
"On Wednesday, February 18, JetBlue flight 543 from Newark (EWR) to West Palm Beach (PBI) returned to Newark shortly after takeoff following a reported engine issue and smoke in the cabin. The aircraft landed safely, and customers and crewmembers evacuated using the aircraft’s slides.
Safety is JetBlue’s top priority. We are focused on supporting our customers and crewmembers and will work closely with the appropriate federal authorities to investigate what occurred."
