Delta Airlines flight DL161, an Airbus A350 from Amsterdam to Minneapolis, was forced back to Schiphol Airport earlier today after a pneumatic system failure at 33,700 feet. The crew declared an emergency but landed the aircraft safely in the Netherlands.
All passengers and crew disembarked unharmed, yet the scare has fuelled fresh concerns about Delta's operational reliability and whether travellers face more cancellations and delays ahead.
