Southwest Flight Pulls Up At The Last Minute As Another Plane Crossed Its Path During Landing

Posted • February 25, 2025: Southwest Airlines Pulls Up At The Last Minute At Chicago Airport As Another Plane Crossed Its Path During Landing — A Southwest plane and a private jet nearly collided at Chicago Midway Airport Tuesday morning, according to reports. Southwest Airlines Flight 2504 was forced to abort landing and pull back up into the air after the private jet rolled across its runway “without authorization,” the FAA told The Post. Alarming footage from the incident showed the Southwest plane come within feet of touching down, while just yards ahead, the private Challenger 350 jet began to roll across its path. Southwest Flight 2504 – a Boeing 737 – pulled sharply up to avoid what would have been a catastrophic collision.
