A TAP Air Portugal Airbus A320-200, registration CS-TNJ performing flight TP-1329 from London Gatwick,EN (UK) to Porto (Portugal), was climbing out of Gatwick’s runway 26L when the crew levelled off at 4000 feet reporting a fire in a galley and positioned for a return to Gatwick. The aircraft landed on runway 26L about 13 minutes after departure, vacated the runway and stopped on the parallel taxiway for an inspection by emergency services. The aircraft subsequently returned to the apron.

The aircraft departed again after about 2:45 hours and reached Porto with a delay of about 2:45 hours.
