A China Airlines Airbus A350-900, registration B-18901 performing flight CI-73 (dep Oct 3rd 2025) from Taipeh (Taiwan) to Amsterdam (Netherlands), was on approach to Amsterdam when the crew reported they had a small problem, a tyre deflation problem and requested runway 27 reasoning the runway was close to their gate. The crew subsequently also requested a tow truck to be ready and indicated they might be able to vacate the runway. ATC advised they can't have runway 27 but runway 18C or otherwise needed to divert. The crew accepted runway 18C and continued for a safe landing on runway 18C.
