“The Runway Wasn’t Clear”: Southwest 737 Touches Down Before Abrupt Burbank Go-Around

An event reported on Thursday saw a Southwest Airlines aircraft abort its landing and perform a go-around at Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR). While the aircraft landed safely on its second attempt, what makes this event newsworthy is that the flight crew then informed the passengers via the onboard PA system that the allocated runway for landing was not clear when the aircraft initially touched down.
