JetBlue flight rolls onto grass after landing at Boston's Logan airport, no injuries reported

A JetBlue flight arriving from Chicago veered off the pavement and onto the grass while taxiing after landing at Logan International Airport on Thursday. No injuries were reported in the incident.

JetBlue flight 312, an Airbus A220 arriving from Chicago O’Hare International Airport, exited the runway during a turn shortly before noon, according to airport officials with Massport. The runway was temporarily closed as the aircraft was assessed, and passengers were deplaned via stairs and transported by bus to the terminal.

According to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the aircraft was turning off the runway at the time of the incident. “JetBlue flight 312 from Chicago was turning off the runway at the time when the incident occurred,” the FAA said, as reported by NBC Boston.

Massport confirmed that no one was injured. FAA records indicate that the Airbus A220 involved was newly manufactured in 2024.

“Safety is JetBlue’s top priority,” the airline said in a statement. “We will conduct a full investigation of the incident and will work closely with the relevant authorities to understand the cause.”

Tyesha Best, president of the Transport Workers Union of America Local 579, which represents JetBlue flight attendants, stated that the union is “aware of the event.”

The FAA had earlier issued a ground stop at Boston Logan due to the incident, which was lifted later in the day. A ground delay advisory remained in effect Thursday afternoon, impacting approximately 14% of departing flights, according to data from FlightAware.

The Boston incident occurred the same day as a major aviation tragedy in India, where an Air India flight bound for London crashed minutes after takeoff from Ahmedabad.

The Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner, carrying 242 people, crashed into a residential area near a medical college in the Meghani Nagar locality at 1:38 PM local time (08:08 GMT). 241 people are confirmed dead, making it the first recorded crash of a Boeing 787, according to the Aviation Safety Network.

Boeing said in a brief statement that it is “working to gather more information.”

India’s Directorate General of Civil Aviation said the aircraft had issued a mayday call indicating an emergency but did not respond to further attempts by air traffic control.
