LOS ANGELES -- An Alaska Airlines flight en route to Seattle landed at Los Angeles International Airport a few minutes after takeoff Wednesday because of cabin pressure problems, an airline official said.

No one was injured and the 121 passengers who had left from Ontario International Airport were put on other flights to Seattle, said Alaska Airlines spokeswoman Amanda Tobin.

It was the second Alaska flight in as many days to fail to reach its destination because of pressurization problems.

Flight 397 left Ontario International at 6:37 a.m. The MD-80 landed at Los Angeles International, about 35 miles away, at 7:16 a.m. after crew members noticed the pressurization problem.

Alaska seems to be having a terrible time lately with pressure problems. I hope they get it all cleared up.
