Kevin Ray, who streams take-offs and landings at LAX on his YouTube channel Airline Videos Live, said he thought something was strange when he saw an ITA jet heading to Rome make a left-hand turn toward an American Airlines plane that was heading to New York.
An air traffic controller noticed the ITA jet's maneuver and ordered it to correct its flight path while his colleague directed the American flight away from the danger.
The controller instructed the pilot to contact the tower, while his colleague checked with the American Airlines pilot.
The American Airlines pilot thanked the tower.
The airline confirmed the incident and released a statement, also thanking air traffic controllers, and its crew.
ITA said in a statement to CBS News that is is "is completing the assessments required by applicable regulations and internal procedures. It is confirmed that the flight operated regularly, landing ahead of schedule at Rome Fiumicino" Airport.
The Federal Aviation Administration said it could not provide any information about the near collision because of the government shutdown.
