Emirates flight to Dubai returned to London Heathrow on evening of Tuesday, July 23 2024.

Emirates flight #EK6 departed London Heathrow at 22:50 local time, about 35 minutes late.

The Airbus A380 (registration A6-EUU) departed runway 09R but entered a holding pattern at 10,000 ft over The Channel, probably to deal with the issue already.

The flight then went to 32,000 ft altitude but had to stop the climb over France, in Paris FIR.

Due to an operational reason this flight has been delayed and will now operate as EK8006 on 24Jul.

Emirates

The crew decided to turn around to return to London Heathrow. The A380 landed on runway 09L 2 hours after departure.

According to our sources, the aircraft suffered an engine issue.
