Lufthansa Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner Aborts Takeoff at Hyderabad Airport Due to Nose Gear Issue

Hyderabad, India – 21 May 2025, 03:14 LT — A Lufthansa Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner operating flight LH-753 from Hyderabad to Frankfurt was forced to abort its takeoff early Wednesday morning due to an issue with its nose landing gear. The incident occurred at Rajiv Gandhi International Airport (HYD) as the aircraft was accelerating on runway 09R.

According to preliminary reports from unofficial sources, the crew rejected the takeoff at high speed—approximately 150 knots (about 277 km/h)—after detecting a problem with the nose wheels. The aircraft came to a controlled stop on the runway before safely vacating onto a parallel taxiway.

Lufthansa confirmed that the aircraft, registered D-ABPD, experienced multiple tire deflations due to the heavy braking involved in the rejected takeoff. All 196 occupants on board were safely evacuated via stairs with no injuries reported.

The 2019-built aircraft sustained only minor damage. Airport authorities temporarily suspended operations on the affected runway to allow for inspection and towing of the aircraft. Normal operations resumed shortly thereafter.

An investigation into the technical cause of the nose gear issue is expected. The airline is working with local authorities and maintenance teams to assess the aircraft and resume service.
