In this episode, American Airlines flight eighteen forty-seven is departing from San Juan, bound for Dallas. As the aircraft climbs past 16,000 feet, pilots are alerted that a passenger was seen receiving a text message saying ‘RIP’. Interpreting this as a threat, the crew decides to return to San Juan out of an abundance of caution.
After returning, the aircraft was inspected and cleared for take off.
