KUWAIT (Reuters) - "Kuwait Airways has grounded its fleet of five Airbus A300 to conduct an inspection of the jets," the state-owned carrier said on Thursday.
The Gulf Arab carrier did not specify what prompted the suspension, other than that Airbus had asked the airline to conduct a check-up on its A300 planes after Kuwait Airways "submitted notes" to the manufacturer."The procedure has resulted in delaying some flights until the check-up is done and this type is back to flying," Adel Broslay, Kuwait Airway's director of public relations and media, said in a statement.
The A300 is a short-to-medium range wide-body jet liner. Broslay said Kuwait Airways, which has a fleet of 17 planes, could lease aircraft if the maintenance work is delayed.
