Swift Action Saves the Day
The incident unfolded when Southwest Airlines Flight 2504, arriving from Omaha, Nebraska, was cleared to land. However, as the aircraft touched down, a smaller Flexjet plane unexpectedly crossed the same runway. In a split-second decision, the Southwest pilot executed a go-around, lifting off again to prevent a catastrophe.
According to Southwest Airlines, the flight later landed safely without any further issues. A company spokesperson reassured passengers, stating: «The crew followed safety procedures, and the flight landed without incident. Nothing is more important to Southwest than the safety of our customers and employees.»
Social Media Reacts to the Shocking Footage
Video clips of the tense moment have been widely shared on social media, showing the Southwest aircraft aborting its landing just as the Flexjet plane taxied across the runway. The footage has sparked a heated debate, with many praising the Southwest pilot for their quick reflexes, while others criticised air traffic control for allowing such a close call to occur.
