Delta flight to Atlanta diverted due to brake issue

A Delta Air Lines flight from Miami to Atlanta made an emergency landing in Orlando due brake heating issues, the FAA said.

Flight 362 landed safely at 4:15 p.m at Orlando International Airport, where technicians were inspecting the plane, according to Kathleen Bergen with the FAA.

The MD-90 is scheduled to leave Orlando at 8 p.m. Monday to complete its flight to Atlanta, according to Delta's website.

“Customers may be re-accommodated on other flights pending review of the aircraft,” the airline said in an emailed statement. “Safety is always Delta’s top priority.”
