It will be recalled that a British Airways flight from Heathrow airport to Tokyo on Thursday was forced to turn around due to a “technical glitch.” The flight was about halfway into its trip when it made the U-turn, touching back down in London after traveling 6,000 miles.
The Flight BA7 was cruising over northern Siberia when it was directed to turn around. The plane landed at Heathrow around midnight, about an hour after it was due to arrive at Tokyo’s Narita Airport.
A spokesman for British Airways claimed that the Boeing 777 “returned to Heathrow as a precaution after a minor technical issue.”
On their return to Heathrow, stranded passengers were given hotel rooms paid for by British Airways, and eventually got out the gate—for real this time—at 10:30 a.m. Friday morning.
