Two Delta planes clipped wings on the tarmac at Boston Logan International Airport Friday night, the airline confirmed.

Flight 2488 from San Francisco was taxiing to Terminal A when the plane’s wing made contact with the wing of a jet at the neighboring gate.

The second plane, Flight 154, was scheduled to depart for Dublin, Ireland.

“Customers from both flights deplaned normally and Delta’s maintenance technicians are now evaluating both aircraft,” Delta said in a statement. “The safety of Delta’s customers and crew is our number one priority.”

The Federal Aviation Administration is investigating.

No injuries were reported.
