The three flights concerned were bound for Mexico City, Chicago and Portland. In total, nearly 650 passengers have been a significant delay due to this problem.
-According to KLM, the problem concerns a component used during fuel supply of the plane.
The company, which is part of the Air France-KLM group, says that it does everything possible to minimize the impact on passengers. “As far as possible, a replacement plane will be deployed. If this is not possible, passengers will be placed on another flight so that they can reach their destination with as few inconveniences as possible, ”said the company according to the ANP.
