Technical problems prompted Japan Airlines to turn around two separate flights on Boeing 787 Dreamliner planes Wednesday evening.

BBC reports that on one flight, one of the two anti-ice systems that prevent ice from building up around the engine failed. Japan Airlines took the Tokyo-bound flight back to San Diego.

On a Moscow-to-Tokyo flight, an electrical glitch made six toilets unusable.

Boeing's Dreamliner, a portion of which is built by Spirit AeroSystems in Wichita, has experienced several technical glitches, including a battery overheating problem that grounded the entire fleet earlier this year.
