Two planes bumped into each other at John F. Kennedy International Airport on Wednesday, the second time in a few days an unusual incident occurred at the airport.

A JetBlue flight from New York to Puerto Rico struck the tail of another JetBlue plane, both Airbus A320s. The plane returned to the gate and no injuries were reported.

The Federal Aviation Administration issued a statement saying "JetBlue Flight 1603 struck the tail of a parked JetBlue aircraft while pushing back from the gate around 7 a.m.at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York.

"The flight was going to Luis Muñoz Marin International Airport in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Both aircraft were Airbus 320. No injuries were reported, and the FAA will investigate."

The incident comes five days after two planes nearly collided at JFK last Friday.

A Delta Air Lines Boeing 737 stopped its takeoff as an American Airlines flight crossed the runway. The planes passed within 1,000 feet of each other. That incident is under investigation.
