A Fiji Airways Boeing 737 MAX has been damaged at Brisbane’s international airport after an aerobridge incident.

Flight FJ923 from Nadi, which landed at Brisbane Airport at 11.02pm on Saturday, was damaged at the gate when the aerobridge smashed into the cockpit’s left-hand windscreen.

All passengers safely disembarked via forward stairs.

No further details were available, with a Brisbane Airport spokesperson telling Brisbane Times there were no injuries.

On June 19, a Qantas 737-800 has been damaged in a similar incident after a collision with an aerobridge at Brisbane Airport.

The plane, VH-VZG, was operating flight QF186 from Queenstown when the aerobridge hit it as it was positioning at the gate, smashing the front windscreens.
