Flight makes emergency landing after passengers spot lice in woman's hair

American Airlines flight from Los Angeles to New York was rerouted to Phoenix. However, the passengers only learned that the flight to New York would take off in 12 hours. Among the passengers was Ethan Judelson, who was shocked to find the reason from another passenger. After they boarded the plane again, they were assigned the same seats, which resulted in a major scene when two women returned to the same seat where they spotted the lice.
