What should have been an easy three-hour flight turned into a traveling nightmare on Saturday for the Green Bay Packers . With the team set to face the Arizona Cardinals in Week 7, the Packers were supposed to take off for Phoenix at 1:30 p.m. CT, but they ended up getting delayed for more than five hours due to a mechanical issue.

The Packers charter two planes each week, and the early flight took off around 1:15 p.m. CT with no issues, according to ESPN . The second flight, which was carrying players and most of the coaching staff, was the one that got delayed.
