										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p><strong>Mumbai</strong> &#8211; Air India has cautioned passengers about possible disruptions to some of its long haul services operated by Airbus A350 aircraft.</p>



<p>The advisory follows an incident involving one of the airline’s wide body jets after its return to New Delhi.</p>



<p>According to the airline, the aircraft experienced damage while taxiing after landing in low visibility conditions.</p>



<p>As a precautionary measure, the aircraft has been grounded for inspection and technical checks.</p>



<p>The airline stated that safety remains its top priority and that all necessary procedures are being followed.</p>



<p>Engineers are carrying out a detailed assessment before the aircraft is cleared to return to service.</p>



<p>Air India currently operates a small but growing fleet of A350 aircraft.</p>



<p>These planes are deployed on premium international routes connecting India with major global cities.</p>



<p>Routes served by the A350 include key destinations such as London and North America.</p>



<p>These services are an important part of the airline’s international expansion strategy.</p>



<p>While alternative aircraft are available on some sectors, operational adjustments may be required.</p>



<p>This could lead to changes in flight timings or aircraft assignments on select routes.</p>



<p>The airline has advised passengers to stay updated through official communication channels.</p>



<p>Customers affected by any changes are expected to be informed directly by the airline.</p>



<p>The incident occurred after the aircraft returned to Delhi following an earlier diversion.</p>



<p>The diversion was linked to airspace restrictions that required flight path adjustments.</p>



<p>After landing safely, the aircraft encountered an obstruction on the taxiway area.</p>



<p>This resulted in visible damage to one of the engines, prompting immediate action.</p>



<p>Aviation authorities have confirmed that an investigation is underway.</p>



<p>The focus remains on identifying the exact sequence of events and preventing recurrence.</p>



<p>Images shared by regulators showed localized damage within the engine intake section.</p>



<p>Such inspections are standard practice to ensure continued airworthiness of the aircraft.</p>



<p>Air India emphasized that the issue was identified on the ground and not during flight.</p>



<p>All passengers and crew were reported safe, with no injuries involved.</p>



<p>The airline has been investing heavily in fleet modernization.</p>



<p>The induction of A350 aircraft is part of a broader plan to improve passenger experience.</p>



<p>Industry observers note that temporary disruptions are not uncommon with new aircraft types.</p>



<p>Airlines often take additional precautions during the early phase of operations.</p>



<p>Air India’s response reflects its commitment to maintaining high safety standards.</p>



<p>Grounding the aircraft until repairs are completed aligns with global aviation norms.</p>



<p>Passengers planning to travel on affected routes may see short term changes.</p>



<p>However, the airline aims to minimize inconvenience through careful scheduling.</p>



<p>Officials have indicated that repair work will proceed without delay.</p>



<p>Once cleared, the aircraft will be gradually reintroduced into the schedule.</p>



<p>The incident has drawn attention due to the prominence of the routes involved.</p>



<p>Long haul international services are a key focus area for the carrier.</p>



<p>Air India continues to operate other aircraft on similar routes where feasible.</p>



<p>This flexibility helps ensure continuity of service during maintenance periods.</p>



<p>Overall, the situation is being managed within established safety and regulatory frameworks.</p>



<p>The airline has reassured travelers that operations remain safe and reliable.</p>
