Southwest plane has close call with business jet while landing

The Southwest crew did a "go-around" to avoid the business jet.

A Southwest Airlines plane landed safely at Chicago Midway International Airport after a close call with a business jet that "entered the runway without authorization," according to the Federal Aviation Administration.

Southwest Flight 2504, which was arriving from Omaha, Nebraska, landed "without incident" Tuesday morning "after the Crew performed a precautionary go-around to avoid a possible conflict with another aircraft that entered the runway," Southwest said in a statement.

The FAA said a business jet went onto the runway without authorization.

"Nothing is more important to Southwest than the Safety of our Customers and Employees," Southwest said.

The FAA is investigating.
