Boston’s Logan International Airport saw two separate plane collisions on Monday as Thanksgiving travel ramps up.
The first incident happened Monday morning, when an American Airlines flight clipped the wing of a Frontier Airlines plane waiting to leave the gate, according to the Federal Aviation Administration.
The American Airlines flight had just landed from London. Meanwhile, all 200 passengers on the Frontier flight to Texas had to re-book, NBC Boston reports. No one was injured.
Later that day, a tug vehicle towing an empty JetBlue plane struck a Cape Air plane, the FAA said in a statement. Two pilots and three passengers were on board the Cape Air plane. There were no injuries, NBC Boston reports, but the pilots were taken to the hospital as a precaution.
JetBlue released a statement confirming none of their crew members were injured.
“The tug has been removed from service, and the JetBlue aircraft will undergo a thorough inspection,” a JetBlue spokesperson told NBC Boston. “Safety is JetBlue’s first priority, and we will investigate this incident.”
The FAA is investigating both incidents.
