EMS and the American Medical Response were waiting when the plane landed safely in Honolulu at Daniel K. Inouye International Airport that morning.

"Medical care was provided to several guests & crew members at the airport for minor injuries while some were swiftly transported to local hospitals for further care," Hawaiian Airlines said in a tweet.

Of those injured, 20 passengers were rushed to the local emergency room, one of which was a 14-month-old child. Honolulu EMS explained that injuries included a serious head injury, lacerations, bruising, and loss of consciousness.

The airline's chief operating officer Jon Snook explained that "unstable air and weather conditions near the Hawaiian islands helped create an unstable patch of air that caught the flight by surprise."

The Federal Aviation Administration and the National Transportation Safety Board are conducting a thorough investigation into the incident.
