A Singapore Airlines place accidentally hit an air bridge at Sydney Airport on Monday morning, leaving pilots of the flight feeling extremely embarrassed.

The A380 had just landed and was headed to the gates to park when one of the engines hit the bridge, News.com.au reports. Besides embarrassment, the incident didn't cause much harm. A spokesman for the airport said, "there are no operational impacts and the damage is being assessed."

A spokesman for Singapore Airlines spoke about the incident, saying "Singapore Airlines flight SQ231, an Airbus A380 operating from Singapore to Sydney on 26 May, made contact with one of the gate's aerobridges while taxiing at Sydney Airport. There were no injuries to the 285 passengers and 25 crew onboard."

"Our customers have safely disembarked, and our engineers are now assessing the aircraft. Outbound flight SQ222 has been cancelled and affected customers will be accommodated accordingly in order to minimise disruption to their travel plans," the spokesperson continued. "Customers due to travel on today's flights SQ232 and SQ242 are unaffected. We apologise for any inconvenience caused to our customers."

There were also reports on the incident on Twitter. "@SkyNewsAust @newscomauHQ plane hits structure at #sydneyairport approx 1 hr ago. Ground crew swarming to take pics. pic.twitter.com/CWJdvfGOIV," Alex Chapman wrote.

This incident comes nearly a year after an airport worker was injured at Hong Kong International airport after an air bridge collapsed and the door of a Cathay Pacific flight was ripped off. The worker was injured when the bridge collapsed, shortly after the passengers had boarded the plane, so passengers had just came short of becoming victims. Airport authorities claimed the bridge fell due to a technical problem. The 51-year-old airport technician fell with the bridge. He was hospitalized with injured limbs. None of the passengers or other flight staff were harmed.
