Flight 1722, departing from LaGuardia to Charlotte, was forced to make an emergency landing at Kennedy Airport due to a reported bird strike.
The plane landed safely with no injuries to the 190 passengers and six crew members on board.
The incident highlights the increasing number of bird strikes in the U.S., with the FAA investigating the matter.
This event evoked memories of the “Miracle on the Hudson” in 2009, where a plane in route from New York to Charlotte successfully landed in the Hudson River after a bird strike.
