There is currently no impact on Singapore flights operating with the A350-900.
Cathay Pacific said on Sept 3 it had inspected its entire Airbus A350 fleet after the in-flight failure of an engine part and found 15 aircraft with components that needed replacement.
The Hong Kong carrier said three of the 48 Rolls-Royce-powered planes it had inspected had already gone through successful repairs, and all of the jets were expected to resume operation by Sept 7. It cancelled at least 34 round-trip flights due to the fleet disruption.
Other airlines said they had not yet been issued instructions to examine similar engines after a part failed on one of Cathay Pacific's A350-1000 wide body planes minutes after take-off from Hong Kong on Sept 2.
Data from flight tracking service Flight Radar24 showed other major operators of the A350-1000 and the smaller, more popular A350-900 appeared to be flying their aircraft normally on Sept 2.
