Written by on December 18, 2020

Early Thursday morning, Spirit Airlines Flight 696 slid off the taxiway after landing at Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport.

According to the FAA, the nose wheel of the Airbus A320 slid off the pavement and into the grass.

Passengers were shook up, but there were no injuries.

Over 100 people deplaned using the aircraft stairs and were escorted back to the terminal.

Officials haven’t said the accident was due to weather conditions, but a snowstorm hit the Northeast on Thursday, closing schools and dropping almost 4 feet of snow in some areas.
