Air Canada plane collides with ground vehicle at New York’s LaGuardia airport, halting all flights

The regulator has issued a ground stop for all planes and New York’s emergency management authority warned people to expect cancellations and delays

New York’s LaGuardia airport was closed to flights early on Monday after an Air Canada flight and Port Authority vehicle collided.

The New York police department confirmed the collision but could not immediately offer further information. The update came after flight tracking website FlightRadar24 said in post on X late on Monday that an Air Canada Express plane had collided with a ground vehicle at the airport.
