Air traffic controllers had told the UPS crew to give way to the Copa flight, the FAA said.
"There are no reported injuries and flights are being directed to other taxiways, so there is no impact to airport operations at this time."
Copa said its plane from Panama City was carrying 166 passengers and six crew, and paramedics evaluated two passengers for apparent minor injuries.
