A Hawaiian Airlines Airbus A330-200, registration N375HA performing flight HA-864 from Tokyo Haneda (Japan) to Honolulu,HI (USA) with 268 passengers and 13 crew, was climbing out of Haneda's runway 16L when the crew stopped the climb at 6000 feet reporting an unusual odour in the cockpit. The aircraft returned to Haneda Airport for a safe landing on runway 16L about 35 minutes after departure.
Japan's Ministry of Transport reported no smoke or fire was detected, the aircraft taxied to the apron on own power. The cause of the odour is being investigated.
The aircraft remained on the ground in Tokyo for about 26 hours, then returned to service.
