On August 12, a spokesperson for Singapore Airlines told Nandu reporters that flight SQ638, operated by a Boeing 787-10 passenger aircraft, took off from Singapore on the 11th and headed for Tokyo, Japan, with a total of 260 passengers and 16 crew members on board.

The airline spokesperson said that the aircraft had a technical failure in the brake system when landing at Tokyo Narita Airport in Japan at 7:38 local time on the 12th. According to foreign media reports, when the aircraft landed on Runway B at Tokyo Narita Airport, thick smoke billowed from the left engine. The airport said there were no casualties. Fire trucks and other emergency vehicles gathered around the aircraft, and Runway B was also closed for a time.

Afterwards, the airline's ground engineering team solved the technical problem and replaced a tire of the aircraft involved. This caused the SQ637 flight originally scheduled to fly from Tokyo to Singapore at 13:28 local time on the 12th to be delayed by more than two hours.
