Iberia flight #IB6149 from Madrid was stuck on taxiway after landing at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport.
After a 10 hours and 28 minutes from Madrid, the flight #IB6149 landed on runway 17C at 21:18 CDT Sunday, October 20 2024.
The Airbus A330-200 (registration EC-LUB) taxied from the end of runway to reach terminal at DFW Airport.
According to the pilot, ground ATC made an error by making the plane turn left too early.
The aircraft became stuck on the taxiway when the crew stopped the aircraft because the path wasn’t wide enough for the A330 wingspan.
Passengers had to wait for a tug. The plane was towed backwards on the taxiway before it moved to Terminal D.
