The FAA has confirmed that a JetBlue flight went onto the grass Thursday morning while turning off the runway at Boston Logan International Airport just before noon.

The JetBlue Airbus A220 departed Chicago International Airport and landed at the Boston airport where the airport authority says passengers deplaned via stairs. A bus then took them to the terminal.

The FAA plans to investigate the incident.

There were no reports of injuries.
