On June 12, 2025, a JetBlue flight from Chicago skidded off the runway and onto grass at Boston's Logan International Airport, but fortunately, all passengers were reported safe.

Tyesha Best, president of the Transport Workers Union of America Local 579, confirmed that all crew and customers are safe and that support is being provided to those affected.

Passengers expressed gratitude for the captain's quick actions, with one noting that it felt like a 'curveball' but appreciated the pilot's efforts to maintain safety.

A passenger described feeling alarmed during the landing when the aircraft made a sharp turn, indicating a potential loss of control.

Former Massport CEO Tom Kinton suggested that the plane may have lost steering but entered the grass at a controlled speed, as indicated by minimal disturbance to the ground.

Emergency services, including multiple fire engines, responded to the scene, as captured in a passenger's photo from another aircraft.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has implemented a ground stop at the airport for emergency purposes and is currently investigating the incident.

As of Thursday afternoon, the FAA reported expected delays of about two hours for arriving flights and at least 45 minutes for departures.

This incident comes amid growing concerns about air safety, as recent polling indicates fewer Americans feeling safe about flying this year.

The situation is particularly concerning given that on the same day, a tragic airline disaster occurred in India, where an Air India passenger plane crashed after takeoff, resulting in at least 240 fatalities.

The situation is still developing, and further updates are expected as more information becomes available.

ABC6 has contacted JetBlue and the Federal Aviation Administration for further comments regarding the situation.
