Plane Crash at Miami Airport Affects Labor Day Travel Plans in Texas
Investigators are examining mechanical issues, crew performance, and weather after an Amazon Prime cargo plane overran the runway, killing five people and injuring five others at Miami International Airport.
- On Sunday, Sept 6, 2026, an Amazon Prime Air Boeing 767 crashed at Miami International Airport, killing five people and injuring five others after striking vehicles on the ground.
- The aircraft arrived from San Juan, Puerto Rico, before overrunning the runway around 2 p.m. Sunday; tailwinds and the plane floating too far down the runway likely contributed to the landing failure.
- National Transportation Safety Board Chairwoman Jennifer Homendy will hold a press conference Monday to discuss the investigation, examining whether the 32-year-old jet touched down beyond the typical 3,000-foot landing zone.
- More than 160 flights were canceled and nearly 325 delayed by late Sunday, while Amazon expressed condolences to families affected and pledged to cooperate with investigators.
- Miami International Airport lacks Engineered Materials Arresting Systems, which the Federal Aviation Administration has credited with saving at least 497 lives at other airports, as investigators examine the cargo carrier's maintenance history.
