Delta 462, an Airbus A321, was taxiing to the runway at LaGuardia Airport in Queens for its flight to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta Airport when the passengers popped the door, a spokesperson for Delta told FOX 5 NY in an email."The aircraft returned to the gate where the remaining customers deplaned normally and were accommodated on alternate flights," the spokesperson said.
