   A SkyWest Airlines pilot reports that she was forced to spend the night on a   
   plane after her flight was diverted due to bad weather to a remote village in   
   the state of Colorado. Various American media reported this on Saturday.   
       
   The cabin crew on the SkyWest Airlines flight in question also slept on board   
   the plane in Colorado. Captain Jessica Taylor said she has never experienced   
   anything like this in her 15 years at the helm.   
       
   Thunderstorms forced the flight from Denver to Raleigh, North Carolina, to   
   land in Hayden, Colorado, where it was forced to spend the night.   
       
   SkyWest Airlines Flight 5332 flew on behalf of United Express, a regional   
   label of United Airlines. Flightradar24 showed the aircraft turning and   
   deflecting a number of times before landing in Hayden via Nebraska and Wyoming.   
       
   It was a challenging week of flying, pilot Taylor wrote on social media. After   
   more than eight hours of flying, the crew and I had to sleep on the plane.   
   Yes, you read that right: we slept on the floor of the plane! The Embraer E170   
   does have a First Class with adjustable seats, but you can't sleep in it all   
   night, since the backrests can only recline fifteen centimeters.   
       
   SkyWest said no hotel rooms were available, and has apologized to the   
   passengers who were also staying overnight in the aircraft. Hayden also has   
   two hotels: The Quarter Horse Inn and the Hiway 40 Lodge.
