A LOT Polish Airlines Boeing 787-8, registration SP-LRA performing flight LO-75 from Warsaw (Poland) to Mumbai (India), was enroute at FL410 about 20nm east of Bucharest (Romania) when the crew decided to turn around and return to Warsaw reporting a problem with the autobrakes. The aircraft descended to FL400 for the return and landed safely on Warsaw's runway 11 about 90 minutes after the decision to turn around.
