A Korean Air passenger plane traveling from Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE) to Incheon has experienced a departure delay, causing inconvenience to over 200 passengers.
According to Korean Air on the 7th, the KE952 (A330-200) flight, scheduled to depart from Dubai International Airport at 10:25 PM local time on the 6th and arrive at Incheon International Airport, displayed a message indicating a problem with the hydraulic system during a pre-flight inspection. As a result, the departure was postponed to 1:30 PM on the 7th, a delay of 15 hours and 5 minutes. There were 218 passengers scheduled to be on board this flight.
Korean Air informed passengers waiting at the airport departure area about the delay and provided meals and accommodation. A Korean Air representative said, "We apologize for the inconvenience caused to passengers due to safety measures," adding, "We will minimize discomfort by providing meals and hotel accommodations."
