Lufthansa Cargo Boeing 777F Grounded in Shanghai Amid Engine Issues
A Lufthansa Cargo Boeing 777F has been grounded at Shanghai Pudong International Airport since August 6, 2026, after a rejected takeoff attempt.
The incident occurred when the crew identified an engine-related issue during the takeoff attempt, although Lufthansa Cargo has not confirmed the cause.
Technical teams have been working to clear the 777F for return to service with Lufthansa Cargo, but the process has taken longer than expected due to weather disruptions linked to Typhoon Dolphin and the complexity of the General Electric GE90-110B1 engines.
