British Airways number BA195 to Houston reached the Canadian coast but landed in London after 9 hours of flight due to an engine problem.

The British Airways flight to Houston returned to London Heathrow after a 9-hour flight.

British Airways flight BA195 to Houston turned around over the east coast of Canada to return to London.

The flight departed from London Heathrow Airport this Monday, June 10, 2024 at 10:00 BST for a 10-hour flight to Houston’s George Bush Intercontinental Airport.

The flight was operated by a 7-year-old Boeing 787 (registration G-ZBKN).

The plane climbed to 38,000 feet and crossed the northern Atlantic before the crew decided to turn around over Labrador, on Canada’s east coast.

As the plane would need maintenance, the pilots agreed with the airline to return to London Heathrow due to a problem with one of the RR Trent 1000’s engines.

The flight landed on runway 27R at London Heathrow 9 hours and 4 minutes after departure.

The flight returned to London Heathrow as a precaution due to a minor technical problem. It landed safely and customers disembarked normally. We have apologized to our customers for the disruption to their travel.

British Airways has confirmed to AIRLIVE that the flight is canceled for today. Customers are reassigned to the next available flights.

The plane is now parked in a remote area near Heathrow Terminal 5.
