A Frontier Airlines Airbus A320neo, tail number N368FR, operating as flight FFT2551 from Philadelphia to Atlanta, encountered a serious issue shortly after takeoff. While climbing out of Philadelphia International Airport, the flight crew detected low oil pressure in the aircraft's right engine—engine number two. Acting quickly, they shut it down, declared an emergency, and requested to return to the airport. After a safe landing, the aircraft exited the runway and came to a stop on a taxiway for inspection. Emergency crews on the scene confirmed oil was leaking from the right engine.
