The airline said in a statement the issue was with high-pressure fuel hoses on one aircraft which was identified in a precautionary inspection conducted on the airline’s A350-900 fleet which are equipped with Rolls-Royce Trent XWB-84 engines.

“This finding was swiftly resolved, and the aircraft has been fully cleared for service in accordance with stringent maintenance protocols,” it added.

Several airlines around the world ordered inspections of their A350 aircraft following the grounding of Hong Kong-based Cathay Pacific’s 48 planes, after a Zurich-bound A350-1000 aircraft returned to the city shortly after takeoff on Monday, AFP reported

On Thursday, the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) said the aircraft suffered an engine failure due to a high-pressure fuel hose failing. There was an in-flight engine fire shortly after takeoff, which was promptly detected and extinguished.

In its emergency directive addressed to airlines, the EASA mandated inspections on A350-1000s which are powered by XWB-97 engines made by Rolls-Royce. There are 86 such planes in service worldwide, according to the EASA.
