NEW YORK-<\/strong> An Aer Lingus (EI)<\/a> Airbus A330-300, operating as flight EIN107 from Dublin Airport (DUB) to New York John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK)<\/a>, was instructed to call Air Traffic Control after a taxiway misstep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The widebody aircraft, registration EI-FNG, had just landed at JFK when the crew mistakenly entered taxiway G instead of holding short as instructed by the Tower. The situation was quickly corrected without incident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aer Lingus Violates ATC Instructions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After landing on runway 22L, EIN107<\/strong> was directed by Tower to taxi via Juliet (J), Zulu (Z), and hold short of Golf (G).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead, the crew turned onto taxiway G and stopped short of runway 22R. This created a potential conflict point since 22R is an active parallel runway at JFK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The controller immediately identified the deviation, clarified the instructions, and confirmed that the crew had acknowledged the original clearance to hold short of G.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the pilots apologized for the error, Tower instructed them to remain in position and later provided a phone number to call after taxi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
