A JAL Japan Airlines Boeing 777-200, registration JA709J performing flight JL-903 from Tokyo Haneda to Naha (Japan) with 300 people on board, had just levelled off at FL400 after departure from Haneda Airport when the crew decided to shut the left hand engine down and return to Haneda reporting a problem with the left hand engine (GE90). The aircraft landed safely back on Haneda's runway 23 about 75 minutes after departure.

A replacement Airbus A350-900 registration JA05XJ reached Naha with a delay of about 4 hours.

Japan's Ministry of Transport reported there had been no engine fire.
