Two KLM Boeing 777 flights returned to Schiphol Airport on Sunday 29 December due to technical issues. Flight KL835 to Singapore and Denpasar, Bali (B777-300ER reg. PH-BVS) experienced a problem over Germany, while Flight KL895 to Shanghai Pudong (B777-200ER reg. PH-BOD) encountered a drinking water system failure over Azerbaijan.
Both planes landed safely, with no injuries reported, though passenger itineraries remain uncertain.
These incidents follow a Saturday disruption when a flight from Oslo diverted after a loud noise during takeoff, ending in a minor runway mishap. No injuries occurred, but delays impacted passengers.
