It’s another mishap for snake-bitten United Airlines.
A pair of United planes clipped wings at San Francisco International Airport last week. One plane was parked at a gate, and the author was just arriving.
There were no major injuries reported. Passengers on the arriving plane from Reno, Nevada, were able to disembark at SFO.
This is the latest in a series of incidents for United Airlines that have ranged from a faulty hydraulic system to overflowing toilets to a tire that literally fell off seconds after taking off. A spokesperson for United Airlines confirmed this latest issue.
There were 110 passengers and crew onboard the flight from Reno.
