Shaheen NL 766 LHE-DXB 06 Apr Delayed

Post by TAILWIND »

SAI 766 LHE-DXB STD 1100 6 Apr initially delayed till 2030 hrs and now indefinitely. Pax from other cities and those joining jobs or connections from dxb agitated as staff not giving any concrete status or ETD. One rumor that an aircraft from Jordan (?) will arrive at midnight and will operate the dxb flight at 0200 hrs.
Appreciate if someone can update.

Shaheen Air is notorious for delayed flights. Airline's Jeddah flights at Lahore Airport suffering long delays are frequently reported by local news channels.

Maybe the airline is waiting for the return of recently wet leased Jordan Aviation Boeing 767-204ER registration JY-JAG that after performing Shaheen Air flight NL-719 from Islamabad to Jeddah on April 1 flew to Amman from Jeddah. Maybe the Boeing 767 went to Amman for some maintenance checks and will resume wet lease term with Shaheen Air?

Probably the delay is related to cabin pressurisation problem experienced by an aircraft performing Shaheen Air flight NL-767 from Dubai to Lahore on April ?

But the aircraft i.e. A320 registration AP-BLI involved in that incident was able to continue Shaheen Air flights most likely after repairs at Lahore Airport.

Seems NL-766 departed from Lahore at 4:40 AM on April 7 with a delay of nearly seventeen hours. Flight's scheduled departure time was 11:45 AM on April 6.
