In a statement by management of the airline, it stated that passengers on the affected flights have been provided options and issues resolved.
The airline has also debunked reports suggesting that one of its engines exploded shortly before take off.
“Our attention has been drawn to an online post suggesting that one of our engines exploded shortly before take off.
