A Delta flight to NYC made an emergency landing in the Azores due to an engine issue and stranded passengers for 29 hours.

Delta Air Lines passengers spent a day on the remote Azores island chain, nearly 1,000 miles from the European mainland.

A Delta jet experienced engine problems on what was supposed to be a trans-Atlantic flight and landed on an island in the middle of the ocean, leading to a more than 31-hour delay, officials said Thursday.
