Amazon cargo plane crashes at Miami International Airport
An Amazon‑branded cargo aircraft overran the runway while landing at Miami International Airport on Sunday, September 6, 2026, at approximately 2 p.m. local time. The Boeing 767‑300, operating as 21 Air Flight 7598, had arrived from Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport in San Juan, Puerto Rico, when it failed to stop on the runway and collided with ground vehicles, causing multiple injuries. The Federal Aviation Administration confirmed the incident and noted that the extent of the aircraft’s damage and the seriousness of the injuries were still being assessed at the time of the report.
Following the crash, all arrivals and departures at Miami International were temporarily halted, and more than 60 scheduled flights were delayed or canceled as emergency crews secured the runway and investigated the scene. Authorities have opened a full investigation into the cause of the overrun, and airport officials are working with Amazon and the aircraft operator to determine any contributing factors. The FAA and local emergency services continue to monitor the situation, and further updates are expected as the investigation progresses.
