An Air Canada flight attendant who survived the deadly LaGuardia runway collision after being flung from the aircraft while still strapped into her jump seat now finds herself at the centre of a story that blends raw human survival with urgent questions about how the crash happened.
The flight attendant, identified in multiple reports as Solange Tremblay, survived the 22 Mar 2026 collision involving Air Canada Express Flight AC8646, operated by Jazz Aviation, and an airport rescue vehicle at New York's LaGuardia Airport. The National Transportation Safety Board said the CRJ900 struck a fire truck on Runway 4, while Air Canada and Jazz confirmed that the captain and first officer were killed.
