Gatwick Airport

London, United Kingdom: A British Airways flight bound for the Caribbean was forced to make an unexpected U-turn over the Atlantic on Tuesday night, returning to London after nearly eight hours in the air. Flight BA2157 departed London Gatwick on September 30, scheduled to land in Antigua before continuing on to St. Kitts and Nevis. Midway through its journey, however, the aircraft turned back towards the UK. Data from flight tracking platforms, like Flightradar24, confirmed the unusual path, which saw the Boeing jet return to its point of departure instead of completing the transatlantic crossing due to pressure warning light on 2 tyres, the aircraft landed back at London Gatwick Airport at 16:22 BST, almost 8 hours after takeoff. Passengers on board were said to have remained calm during the diversion, and no medical emergencies have been reported so far. British Airways has not yet provided an explanation, and UK aviation regulators have also remained silent. Aviation observers have speculated about possible technical or operational reasons, but no official confirmation has been given. On September 28, 2025, a British Airways flight experienced an unexpected incident upon landing at Grenada's Maurice Bishop International Airport (MBIA). The aircraft, a Boeing 777-200 (registration G-VIIU), arrived from Saint Lucia but came to a complete stop on the runway after landing. There were no signs of distress during the approach, and the aircraft landed normally. However, it failed to move under its own power, prompting airport staff to tow it to a safer area. Passengers remained on board during the towing process, and no injuries or emergency procedures were reported
