A VIRGIN Blue passenger has been taken to the Royal Adelaide Hospital suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning.
The woman, believed aged in her 50s, was accompanied by a friend at the hospital.

An SA Ambulance spokeswoman confirmed the woman was being treated for carbon monoxide poisoning but said her condition was "not life threatening". It is still not known how she was poisoned.

Flight DJ558 was travelling from Perth to Sydney when it was diverted to Adelaide about 3.15pm.

Passengers told AdelaideNow they were unaware of the drama until the plane changed course for Adelaide. Some complained of an acrid smell during the flight. However, carbon monoxide is generally odourless.

About 130 passengers were screened by ambulance crews in the terminal before reboarding their flight about an hour later and continuing to Sydney.
