Welcome to London Planespotting, the channel where we capture the most amazing moments of aviation in the UK’s capital city.

In this video, we witnessed a rare and embarrassing incident involving a brand new Airbus A220 (EIHLA) of ITA Airways, the Italian flag carrier. The A220 was delivered to the airline just four days ago and it was the second day of operations out of London City Airport, a challenging airport with a short runway and steep approach.

However, things did not go as planned for the crew of the A220, as they made a wrong turn while taxiing to the runway, putting them on a taxiway they were not allowed to go on. This caused a delay for the flight and the airport, as the A220 had to be towed back to the apron. We filmed this event from a nearby spot, where we could see the whole situation unfold. Watch the video to see how the A220 got stuck and how it was rescued by the airport staff.

Should point out really felt for the crew as it must have been an embarrassing moment. London City ops did amazing to resolve the issue in a quick manner.
