Private Jet STOPS on Active Runway & Takes Wrong Exit

A Citation remained on Runway 06R

The original video identifies NetJets Cessna Citation Sovereign N389QS as operating from Asheville Regional Airport to Toronto Pearson on 20 November 2025. It says the aircraft stopped on active Runway 06R and took a wrong exit after landing.

“NetJets Cessna Citation Sovereign N389QS from Asheville Regional (AVL) to Toronto Pearson (YYZ) decided to stop on active runway 06R and take a wrong exit.” — The incident description

A second aircraft was approaching

Contemporary reporting about the same Toronto Pearson event described a WestJet Boeing 737-800, Flight WS2101, being sent around because the Citation had not cleared the runway. The report identifies N389QS as the Citation involved and places the event on the evening of 20 November 2025.

The runway conflict ended without a collision

Contemporary reporting says the WestJet aircraft executed the go-around and later landed safely. The Citation eventually vacated the runway. The available reporting does not establish intentional non-compliance by the Citation crew.

What remains uncertain

The available public reporting does not establish why the Citation stopped short of the intended exit or exactly what the crew perceived on the taxiway. Those questions are kept separate from the established fact that the runway remained occupied while another aircraft was on approach.
