A United Airlines flight made an emergency landing after an evacuation slide malfunctioned mid-flight Sunday night.
United Airlines flight 1463 left Chicago's O'Hare Airport to Santa Ana's John Wayne Airport at 8:18 p.m. before it was diverted to Mid-Continent Airport in Wichita.
Passengers aboard heard a loud bang and a hiss as the emergency slide inflated.
The Boeing 737-700 dropped from 38,000 feet at 10:05 p.m. to 11,000 feet just 12 minutes later due to a loss of cabin pressure, according to FlightAware.com.
United said all 96 passengers and five crew members on board were seated at the time of the incident and no injuries were reported as the plane safely landed in Wichita at 10:36 p.m.
Earlier reports that a passenger had attempted to open a door during the flight proved to be false.
