British Airways London to Tokyo flight

A British Airways (BA) Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner, operating flight BA9171 from Tokyo Haneda Airport (HND) to London Heathrow Airport (LHR), returned to Tokyo after the crew reported a flight control issue shortly after departure.

Seventy-five years ago, British Airways (BA), formerly known as British Overseas Airways Corporation (BOAC), achieved a significant milestone by launching the inaugural passenger flights between the UK and Japan.
