This forced the aircraft to undergo a series of maintenance works.Gouveia said the maintenance crew thought that it would have been a “quick fix”; however, the works took longer as they sought to recalibrate the flight controls. A snow storm, he said, also contributed to the delay. Over 230 passengers were affected by this cancellation on Saturday and Sunday alone.Gouveia added that this aircraft was actually the “standby plane’ which had been set in motion after the primary plane,Cheap Nike Air Max 90 Essential, had experienced damage to its engine casing following an incident with a ground-handling truck.“We are extremely sorry and apologise to the passengers for the delay and the cancellations. Both Dynamic Airways and Roraima Airways are committed to safety and we could not fly that aircraft until it was cleared by the maintenance team,” he said.Captain Gouveia said that the team has already received the necessary tools and that aircraft was expected to be up and running by yesterday.“We are extremely sensitive about the effect that the setback is having on passengers particularly because during this season – the Christmas season – all of the flights are rammed, jam-packed; Guyanese are coming home in mass to enjoy a Guyanese Christmas. We feel very, very bad that this would happen at this time but this was beyond our control,” he empathisedMeanwhile, Dynamic has diverted a 767-300 aircraft which normally plies the Ecuador/New York route,Cheap Nike Air Max 90 Online, to shuttle the stranded passengers. This aircraft, he said, has the capability to shuttle 280 passengers.The aircraft departed New York around 14:00hrs yesterday afternoon and arrived in Guyana around 20:40 hours last night where it spent two and a half hours on the ground before its scheduled departure back to New York.Gouveia, whilst admitting that Dynamic needs to improve its service, said that the company remains committed to Guyana. He added that since the service began operating in Guyana,Nike Air Max 97 Australia, it has contributed to the stabilisation of the “air-fare prices”.“Like every airline, we do have challenges and we work very hard to recover from those challenges and as we’re doing now.”He added that when the two planes are back in order, the company is going to work harder to ensure that passengers are given quality service for their money.Asked how he would grade the service, Gouveia grade seven out of 10 for its overall service, but admitted that the in-flight service needed lots of improvements. He offered a failing grade to this particular aspect.Gouveia hopes that once the airline gets the stranded passengers to their destinations,Air Max 97 Silver, then the service should be back to a state of normalcy by midweek.
