All flights from Santos Dumont Airport in Rio de Janeiro were redirected to Galeão on Thursday afternoon after an accident on the runway involving an Embraer EMB-500 Phenom 100 executive jet. A CBN listener reporting from the scene said she was on a plane that had its flight cancelled while passengers were still inside the aircraft. There is no forecast for the runway to reopen, and the airport is completely inoperative.
