Vuelopedia is a work in progress: it currently holds about 30% of the information we expect to have by the third quarter of 2027. Although we use only official, highly reliable sources, some aircraft data and history may still contain errors or inaccuracies. We work hard to clear every anomaly from the records using specialized verification tools.

Accident at Ebro, Florida

On June 14, 2025, the Boeing 737-7H4 aircraft (registration N969WN), operated by Southwest Airlines, was involved in an accident at Ebro, Florida (United States), leaving 1 injured. Source: the NTSB (United States).

What happened

Southwest Airlines flight 3508, flying from Dallas Love Field to Panama City, Florida, met unexpected moderate turbulence while skirting thunderstorms. As another company aircraft had gone around at the destination because of heavy rain, and the fuel did not allow for several attempts plus a diversion, the crew chose Jacksonville. With the seatbelt sign on and after reminding passengers to stay seated, one of them ignored it and entered the aft lavatory. During the climb, at around 5,000 feet and in instrument conditions, the aircraft met two or three seconds of moderate turbulence that disconnected the autopilot. On coming out of the lavatory, the passenger was thrown upwards, struck the ceiling and the floor and briefly lost consciousness. He suffered several fractures to the neck and back and was operated on; there were no other injuries and no damage to the aircraft. Source: the NTSB (United States).
