Two JetBlue airplanes collided on a runway at Boston’s Logan Airport on Thursday.

The jets collided on the tarmac while passengers were inside both aircrafts. One plane was left with damage to its wing, images obtained by Boston 25 revealed. 


The incident on Thursday occurred after the planes pulled away from the gate around 6.40am. The FAA confirmed that one of the plane’s ‘left winglet’ struck the ‘right horizontal stabilizer’ of the other passenger jet.

One aircraft was headed to Las Vegas, while the other was on its way to Orlando when they collided.
