‘Crazy plane lady’ Tiffany Gomas finally reveals reason behind her viral plane freakout
Tiffany Gomas, the Texas woman who went viral for her outburst on a commercial airline flight, has finally set the record straight on what she saw that led her to leave the flight distraught.
A commercial plane in Florida was forced to make an emergency landing hundreds of miles away from its final destination after a possible threat was reported.
Officials say that Breeze Airways Flight 717 left Orlando International Airport on Tuesday afternoon and was scheduled to fly to Rhode Island T.F. Green International Airport, but was diverted to Jacksonville, Florida, just over an hour into the flight, where it made an emergency landing.
A spokesperson for the FBI's Jacksonville field office told Fox News Digital that a "potential threat" was reported onboard the aircraft, prompting the emergency landing.
"Agents are currently questioning those involved, but there is no information so far to indicate that any legitimate threat existed," the FBI spokesperson said.

The Federal Aviation Administration said in a statement that the airline's "crew reported a disturbance" onboard the Airbus A220.
The Jacksonville Aviation Authority also said in a statement that an "incident on-board the aircraft" caused the plane to divert.
