"During flight 462’s taxi-out at LaGuardia, a party of two opened a cabin door and exited the aircraft via the slide," a statement from Delta said. "The aircraft returned to the gate where the remaining customers deplaned normally and were accommodated on alternate flights."

Delta’s flight 462 was an Airbus A321 aircraft that measures 146 feet in length and 13.58 feet from the top of the main cabin to the ground, according to specs listed on an Airbus Aircraft Characteristics document.
