An Air Canada plane en route to San Jose, Costa Rica returned to Toronto early Thursday, because there was a lot of turbulence.
Emergency services in the Peel area confirm that they received a call from Pearson Airport shortly before 7:00 pm and sent vehicles on site.
According to Air Canada spokeswoman Isabelle Arthur, two flight attendants were transported to the hospital because they suffered minor injuries.
Early reports suggest that the plane was an Air Canada Rouge flight.
