United Airlines Boeing 777 flight to SFO diverted after toilet overflows into cabin
Over the weekend, a United Airlines flight en route to San Francisco from Frankfurt, Germany, was forced to divert due to an overflow from one of the aircraft’s toilets into the cabin. The Boeing 777, operating as United Flight 59, had to return to Frankfurt approximately two hours into the flight Friday after spending some time circling over the North Sea. A United spokesperson attributed the incident to “a maintenance issue with one of the aircraft’s lavatories.” Passengers were accommodated in hotels in Frankfurt and rebooked on different flights the following day. The aircraft returned to service on Sunday, according to aviation records. This incident is the latest in a series of safety-related events involving United Airlines in recent weeks.<br/>
