Officials at Montreal's Trudeau airport are warning of operational delays on the evening of July 9 after an incident involving an Air Canada aircraft resulted in a runway closure.

Air Canada officials said Flight AC774 arriving from Los Angeles around 4 p.m. exited the taxiway after landing.

"No injuries are reported," the statement reads.

The Boeing 737 Max aircraft, carrying 156 passengers and six crew members, landed normally but "sustained a runway excursion and travelled through the grass when exiting the main runway."

By 7:45 p.m., Air Canada confirmed all passengers and crew had disembarked the plane and been transported to the terminal via buses.
