WEB DESK: Pair of passenger planes collided on the tarmac Wednesday at Seattle Tacoma International Airport.
Japan Airlines plane taxiing across the tarmac at Seattle-Tacoma Airport Wednesday morning struck a parked Delta Airlines plane leaving the planes damaged but nobody hurt, according to reports.
The accident happened at 10:17 a.m., the airport announced on X, with the taxiing plane’s wing striking the tail of the parked Delta plane as it passed.
The airport said the incident had “minimal impact” on airport operations.
“There are no injuries reported at this time. SEA is working with both airlines to safely deplane passengers and bring them to the terminal,” the airport said.
The close call comes as tensions remain high at airports across the country following a pair of terrifying accidents.
It should be noted, just a week ago, 67 people were killed when a US Army helicopter collided with an American Airline jet as it landed at Reagan National Airport.
