A passenger who caught a JetBlue flight from New York to Palm Beach had reportedly been told he tested positive for coronavirus moments before the plane took off.
Florida officials announced early on Thursday that a man had tested positive for the virus.
Passengers were forced to remain on Flight 253 for two additional hours as the aircraft stood on the tarmac instead of proceeding to gate C12 at the Palm Beach International Airport.
Another passenger on the plane claimed the man's wife told him they had been told of the result before take off.
The flight landed at 8.53pm from John F Kennedy International Airport in New York City and passengers were allowed off the aircraft at 10.45pm, Palm Beach County Fire Rescue explained to WPTV.

This jerk was probably flying to catch his cruise ship.
People like this boggle the mind. ME ME ME!
Im censoring my thoughts on this couple except to say that my sympathies lie with their victims.
The stock market goes down as well as up. Who would have thunk that.
If a infected person travels, charge them with attempted murder and drop them in Saudi Arabia.
Seriously people, how hard would it be to move the Newark label up a bit so the DC label didn’t cover part of it???
A Chinese guy walks into a bar and says, “I’ll have a corona” so the bartender coughs in his face.
“So you got on a plane WHY, exactly?”
“Because I’m important and you’re NOT!”
“Because I had somewhere I had to be!”
“Because I had already paid for the ticket, and didn’t pay for insurance!”
“Because I know lots of Doctors, and they don’t know anything!”
You can pretty much take your pick. Sounds like a relative of Bloomberg’s.
Well before the travel ban, I had written that we should route all international travel to just a small handful of airports where incoming passengers could be quarantined and screened. Those who show symptoms or test positive move to a second or third level quarantine.
Now I’m not sure it matters much. Only travel allowed will be from South America and I guess a few ME countries.
I know so many people that are still going on spring break. Crazy
Well, it is more important to party while you are indestructable.
This is a news site, and this virus is the news. If you don’t want to hear about it, go watch youtube videos or something.

If you doubt he is a DR...please just do a BASIC internet search before claiming he is a liar,.
I prefer dogs to people.
Any day of the week.
I’m with you.
Does anyone know how long it takes to get the results once youve been tested? Is it days?
EVERYBODY needs to bookmark this GREAT COVID-19 info site suggested by American Thinker!
I dont know. BUt the Brazil guy was tested yesterday and knows he has the virus today.
However last night he said he was fine
So possible he didnt shed it at Maralago.
Meanwhile, Trudeau is now on the hotseat via his wife.
Thanks, it probably takes a day or two to get the results.
I just moved to south Florida this year so I have learned fast on how rude and self-serving some of these people are. It makes perfect sense on why they jumped on the plane knowing they were sick.
