Flight QF186 struck a passenger jet bridge after landing in Brisbane from Queenstown in New Zealand shortly before 6:40 pm local time on Wednesday, local media Brisbane Times reported on Thursday morning.

A spokesperson for Qantas said that the airline was investigating how the bridge made contact with the front of the aircraft.

"The aircraft will be inspected by engineers in Brisbane and repaired before returning to service," he said.

It is the second jet bridge strike at the Brisbane airport in under a month after Air New Zealand Flight NZ146 made contact with a bridge as it was pushing back from a gate on May 22 and sustained a puncture in the fuselage, causing the scheduled flight to Auckland to be canceled.
