A LATAM Brasil Boeing 777-300, registration PT-MUH performing flight LA-8146 from Sao Paulo Guarulhos,SP (Brazil) to Lisbon (Portugal), was accelerating for takeoff from runway 09L when the crew attempted rotation, the nose gear slightly lifted off the runway, then the takeoff was rejected at about 174 knots over ground. The aircraft slowed safely, vacated the runway at the very end and stopped on the parallel taxiway. Emergency services responded, the passengers disembarked via stairs onto the taxiway.

On Feb 20th 2026 Brazil's CENIPA reported during the takeoff run the aircraft showed an above limit temperature in the right hand engine (GE90). The crew rejected takeoff. The aircraft vacated the runway on own power and was subsequently handed to maintenance. The occurrence was rated an incident and is not being investigated.
