I didn't catch the gator's "tail" number :)
this was around 11AM, haven't had time to scan the ground freqs in Orlando.

ORLANDO, Fla. (CBS12) — Only in Florida.


A Spirit Airlines flight heading to Orlando International Airport from Baltimore-Washington International Airport was halted after an alligator was spotted on the runway, WKMG reported.

Passenger Anthony Veraldi told WKMG the plane came to a stop after taxiing and the pilot told everyone about the incident.

"Believe it or not, we have to wait for an alligator that's in the middle of the runway," the pilot said.
