Deadly LaGuardia crash triggers flight cancellations at Logan Airport

March 23, 2026 – A deadly plane crash in New York is now disrupting flights in Boston, with cancellations and delays hitting Logan Airport this morning.

An Air Canada regional jet collided with a fire truck while landing at LaGuardia Airport late Sunday night. The pilot and co-pilot were killed, and dozens of passengers were injured.

The crash forced LaGuardia to shut down, sending ripple effects across the Northeast and directly impacting Boston travelers.

At Logan Airport, at least 25 flights have already been canceled and more delays are building as airlines adjust schedules. Routes between Boston and New York are among the hardest hit, with multiple early departures scrapped.

This is one of the busiest air corridors in the country. When it breaks, everything backs up fast.

Federal investigators are now examining how the collision happened. Early reports indicate the plane struck the emergency vehicle while it was on the runway responding to another situation.

For travelers in Boston, this is not just a New York problem.

Even if your flight is not headed to LaGuardia, delays can spread quickly through airline networks, especially along the East Coast.

If you are flying today, check your flight status before heading to the airport. Conditions are changing quickly, and more cancellations are possible.

What started as a late-night crash has now turned into a regional travel disruption, with Boston feeling the impact first thing this morning.
