A Malaysia Airlines flight made an emergency landing Monday morning, returning safely to Kuala Lumpur International Airport because of a problem with the plane’s landing gear, airline officials said.


As the plane, Flight 192, took off from the airport at 10:09 p.m. local time on Sunday en route to Bangalore, India, a tire on the main landing gear blew out, according to a statement on the airline’s Facebook page.


After debris from the tire was found on the runway, the plane’s captain was alerted by air traffic controllers in Kuala Lumpur and was ordered to turn back because of safety concerns.


The plane, a Boeing 737-800 with 166 people on board, landed safely at the airport at 1:56 a.m. on Monday, airline officials said. It had been scheduled to arrive in Bangalore at 11:35 p.m. on Sunday.


In March, Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 disappeared as it flew from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing. The plane, a Boeing 777-200, veered off its scheduled route and vanished with 239 people on board.
