Japanese investigators have attributed the January 2, 2024 collision between a Japan Airlines Airbus A350 and a Japan Coast Guard Bombardier Dash 8 at Tokyo's Haneda International Airport to human error. The preliminary report from the Japan Transport Safety Board, released on December 25, indicates that confusion among flight crews was the primary cause of the accident.

The report highlights that the crew of the Japan Coast Guard aircraft mistakenly believed they had clearance to enter the runway. This misjudgment led to their aircraft colliding with a Japan Airlines widebody. Additionally, air traffic controllers failed to notice both the entry of the Dash 8 onto the runway and an alert indicating potential collision.

Voice recorder data revealed that discussions among the Dash 8 crew were focused on their mission related to a recent earthquake in Noto Peninsula. The inability of Japan Airlines' crew to spot the Dash 8 due to limited visibility contributed further to this accident.

On January 2, a Bombardier DHC-8-315 operated by Japan Coast Guard collided with a Japan Airlines Airbus A350-900 after stopping on runway 34R. Six people aboard the Dash 8 included one seriously injured captain and five deceased crew members. Meanwhile, all passengers and crew aboard the Airbus evacuated safely despite injuries and fire damage.

Despite communication challenges post-collision, effective evacuation procedures ensured no fatalities among those onboard Japan Airlines' flight. Passengers were guided out using megaphones as cabin crew managed emergency exits efficiently.
