<p>United Airlines Flight 1199 (Boeing 737-990/ER) had just landed from Newark with 175 aboard; Alaska Airlines flight 143 (Boeing 757-224) to Portland was departing with 182 aboard when they made contact.</p>
<p>The left hand winglet of the arriving 737 contacted the right hand horizontal stabilizer of the departing 757. Fortunately the Alaska jet was not on its take-off run, so the impact happened at a crawl (i.e. &#8220;taxiing at a low speed.&#8221;). Passengers said they felt a jolt. The planes were stuck together; and part of one plane had &#8220;snapped off.&#8221;</p>
<p>The impact occurred at 7:51, derailing travel plans of the passengers, and scheduling for the two damaged jets. Some passengers were put up at local hotels, but there were no reported injuries.</p>
<p>A passenger who shot a well-circulated <a href="https://twitter.com/brujo11c/status/643258353183887360/photo/1" target="_blank" data-wpel-link="external">picture</a> that was released on twitter was besieged with reporter requests to post the image. Actor Peter Cambor who was aboard also tweeted that the jets were &#8220;stuck together.&#8221;  </p>
