Kenya Airways Grounds Boeing 787s

Two Kenya Airways Boeing 787 Dreamliners are out of service to undergo checks and repairs, but a shortage of parts has prolonged their time out of service. This has led to delays on several of its scheduled routes.

“We apologise for the delays and disruptions experienced recently. These have been caused by unscheduled engine overhauls and unforeseen engine supply chain constraints, resulting in two 787 Dreamliner aircraft being grounded,” Kenya Airways said in a statement

“We expect this to be resolved shortly. If the situation persists longer than expected, we will realign our network to minimise delays and rescheduled flights,” the airline added.
