An Alaska Airlines airplane aborted takeoff on a runway at Tennessee's Nashville International Airport on Thursday to avoid a potential collision with a Southwest Airlines jet, the airline said.
Alaska Airlines 369, a Boeing 737 MAX 9 airplane with 176 passengers and six crew on board, aborted takeoff around 9:15 a.m. ET due to a potential traffic conflict after it had received clearance for takeoff from air traffic control, the airline said.
