However, no injuries were reported in the incident, whose video arose on social networks.
The accident took place at 10.17 in the morning when the wing of the filming plane crashed with the tail of the parked delta plane when the Japanese plane passed.
Exclusive: A passenger on the Japan Airlines flight that arrived at a Delta plane at Seatac airport shared images of the impact moment. He says he started recording because he could say that the Japan Airlines plane would not clear the delta plane and hit it.

“Injuries are not reported at this time. Be it is working with both airlines to move passengers safely and take them to the terminal, “said the airport in a statement.
The incident occurs immediately after two terrifying aviation mishaps in the United States, increasing tensions in airports and passengers.
Only a week ago, 67 people were killed after an American military helicopter collided with an American Airlines plane in the air while the latter tried to land at the Reagan National Airport in DC.
Simply two days later, an aerial ambulance that transported six people fell to a crowded street in Philadelphia and exploded, killing everything on board and a person on the ground.
