The Federal Aviation Administration reported losing contact with the Gulfstream G-100 plane just after 01:00 local time, while it was en route to Boston, Massachusetts. The US Coast Guard initiated a search for survivors off the coast of Nantucket, a Massachusetts island, where debris consistent with the aircraft has been located. The victims included four Canadian nationals and two Bermudian nationals, comprising four medical staff and two pilots. The plane departed from Bermuda's L.F. Wade International Airport at 23:40 local time and was scheduled to land at Boston's Logan International Airport at 01:30 EDT.

Despite these challenges, the pilot reportedly declared an emergency, prompting emergency crews to prepare to meet the plane, which had by then lost radio and radar communication.",
