A Delta Airlines Airbus A330-900, registration N421DX performing flight DL-263 from Paris Charles de Gaulle (France) to New York JFK,NY (USA) with 284 passengers and 11 crew, was descending towards New York when the crew needed to abort the descent and entered a hold at FL260 due to weather conditions in New York. After holding for about 70 minutes the crew opted to divert to Boston,MA (USA) and was on final approach to runway 04R when the crew needed to go around from about 350 feet MSL on ATC instruction due to a departing aircraft at the crossing runway.

A Cape Air Cessna 402C registration N663AA performing flight 9K-1837 from Boston,MA to Bar Harbour,ME (USA), was departing Boston's runway 15R at the time.

The FAA reported: "Air traffic control instructed Delta Air Lines Flight 263 to perform a go-around at Boston Logan International Airport because Cape Air Flight 548 was cleared to takeoff from an intersecting runway. The event occurred around 4:15 p.m. local time on Thursday, Oct. 30. The FAA is investigating."

The A330 positioned for another approach and landed on 04R about 14 minutes later.
