A Southwest Airlines plane that had just landed in Denver slid off the taxiway while heading to the terminal, the airline said Saturday.
The incident occurred at 5 p.m. during a light snowfall and freezing temperatures.
The nose wheel of Flight 1905 from Oakland, California, went off the taxiway, said Southwest spokeswoman Katie McDonald.
The 125 passengers and five crew members were not injured. The airline was working to accommodate passengers on other flights.
Passenger Brad Harris said the jet hit a patch of ice.
