A British Airways Airbus A320 operating flight BA2672, originally bound for Palma de Mallorca, turns back to London Gatwick after a reported system failure or mid-air emergency. The aircraft is reported to have changed course while in flight, with the return to Gatwick described as sudden across the coverage.

The articles frame the incident slightly differently. One outlet describes it as a “system failure” and notes the plane was en route before turning back. Another emphasizes that emergency crews were on standby during the U-turn. A third adds that the aircraft was over France when it declared a mid-air emergency before returning to Gatwick.

Overall, the sources agree on the core facts: BA2672 was headed for Majorca, the A320 diverted back to London Gatwick, and the trigger is described in terms of an emergency related to systems or an in-flight alert.
