A Southwest flight had to quickly abort its landing to avoid a potential collision with a private jet on the runway at Chicago's Midway Airport.

A Southwest Airlines plane and a private jet experienced a close call at Chicago Midway International Airport on Tuesday morning in which the flight crew had to perform a go-around to prevent a potential incident.

The incident involving American Airlines flight 2246 from Boston happened around 8:20 a.m. Tuesday, nearly two hours before a Southwest Airlines flight in Chicago had to perform the same maneuver to avoid colliding with a private jet.
