An Etihad Airways flight from Delhi to Abu Dhabi scheduled for late Saturday evening is cancelled after a technical issue, leaving around 200 passengers facing disruption at Delhi airport. Passengers remain on site for several hours before being deboarded from the Boeing 787-9 aircraft.
Reports indicate the cancellation happens close to departure time, with passengers experiencing prolonged waiting before they are finally taken off the plane. Times of India says deboarding occurs after several hours. NDTV similarly reports passengers are stuck for hours but does not immediately confirm what the technical issue involves, noting that details are not immediately clear.
The two outlets agree on the core facts: the route, the late Saturday cancellation, the technical problem as the stated cause, and the scale of the impact. However, they differ in the amount of specific information provided about the nature of the technical issue and the exact timing and process leading to deboarding.
