Air India’s Dreamliners have had a string of operating snags. In October a body panel fell off the aircraft while it was about to land in Bangalore.
According to a report in the Business Standard, travel agencies as well as air passengers’ association have expressed concerns over the recurring technical glitches.
““We are very concerned. The aircraft (Dreamliner) had been grounded worldwide in January (after earlier operational glitches) and now problems are surfacing recurrently. These may be termed as teething problems, but with no decisive action being taken, who will be held accountable if an unfortunate incident takes place?“D Sudhakara Reddy, president, Air Passengers Association of India, was quoted as saying by BS.
However, terming these as ’teething issues, Air India has said there is no question of going back on Dreamliner orders, according to a _CNBC-TV18 r_eport.
Air India’s utlisation of Dreamliner is the highest at 12 hours per day as against eight hours by other airlines, CNBC-TV18 reported.
