JetBlue Flight 948 reported a drone strike just above the cockpit at 3,000 feet during final approach to JFK on 29 June 2026, yet post-flight inspections by the FAA and JetBlue confirmed no physical damage or evidence of collision. The Airbus A321 landed safely at 7:21 a.m., with all passengers deplaning normally before the aircraft was removed from service for detailed examination. While the pilot stated, “It hit us right above the cockpit,” the FAA explicitly noted that no damage was found, leaving the actual occurrence of a physical collision pending further investigation. This incident underscores the sector’s growing vulnerability to unauthorized drone operations near commercial airports, particularly during critical landing phases, and follows a recent near-miss at Newark Airport involving United Airlines Flight 1513.
