QANTAS航空一架A380班機，機上的一條水管漏水，經濟艙的乘客被淋濕，飛機緊急折返。
那架從墨爾本飛往洛杉磯的班機，在升空後大約一小時，發生這個意外的狀況，上層客艙的一條水管洩漏，在走道上形成一條小溪，乘客頂多鞋子溼掉，不過下層經濟艙就遭殃了，水從天而降，大家淋成落湯雞，A380是唯一有全機兩層客艙配置的飛機。
這個狀況是第一次發生，QANTAS航空說，它沒有影響到飛安，班機折返墨爾本，航空公司安排乘客入住飯店，空中巴士還在找問題根源。
QANTAS issued this statement:
A flight from Los Angeles to Melbourne has returned to LA about an hour after take off as there was a water leak on board the aircraft. Crew on board did everything they could to help customers, including moving them to unaffected areas and providing spare blankets so they could stay dry.
We’re also providing customers with hotel accommodation while the issue is being fixed by our engineers in Los Angeles. We apologise to customers for the inconvenience. There were no safety of flight concerns with the water leak, however the Captain decided to return to LA in the interests of passenger comfort. We are liaising with Airbus to understand what caused this fault.
