‘No injuries have been reported at this time.
‘Buses transported customers from the aircraft to the terminal.’
News of the faulty landing was reported by WSVN-TV.

Earlier on Monday, Logan Airport shut down its runways and grounded its flights due to heavy snow, which brought about poor visibility.
Winter Storm Ethan dumped at least three inches of snow on Boston, which saw its first White Christmas in 14 years.
Crews at Logan eventually cleared the runways around noon time and flights were back up and running, according to WHDH-TV.
The inclement weather still caused delays and backups, though Christmas Day is usually a light travel day.
