(Reuters) – A United Airlines flight headed for Japan landed safely on Thursday at Los Angeles International Airport after losing a tire mid-air following takeoff from San Francisco, the carrier said in a statement.
United said it is arranging for a new aircraft to continue the trip for the 249 people who were on board the Boeing B777-200 jet.
