JD Vance’s plane was forced to make an emergency landing at Milwaukee International Airport due to a mid-flight malfunction.
Reports indicate that the emergency landing was prompted by the main door opening during the flight.
This comes just one week after President Trump’s plane, Trump Force One, made an emergency landing in Billings due to a “hydraulic leak.”

Local New Network WISN reported:
A Boeing 737 charter aircraft carrying Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance made an emergency landing at Milwaukee International Airport this afternoon.
According to airport officials, the plane, operated by Eastern Air, returned to the airport around 1:30 p.m. due to a possible issue with the aircraft. The aircraft landed normally and taxied without incident under its own power.
“The pilot advised there was a malfunction with the door seal. After declaring an emergency, Trump Force Two returned to Milwaukee.” Taylor Van Kirk, a spokeswoman for Sen. Vance, said. “As soon as the issue was resolved, the plane returned to its originally planned flight path back to Cincinnati.”
At approximately 2:15 p.m., the plane was cleared for takeoff.
As Breaking Digest previously reported, Trump Force One made an emergency landing in Billings, Montana last Friday afternoon following a hydraulic leak.
