We reported earlier today here on eWn that many WWE talents and crew are stranded in Saudi Arabia after their charter flight had some mechanical issues. Atlas Air, who runs the chartered flights, has now issued the following statement:
“A chartered WWE passenger flight operated by Atlas Air is currently delayed in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia due to a mechanical issue. The flight was scheduled to depart at 0300 local time on November 1. Our top priority is always to ensure our passengers arrive safely and on time at their destination. The aircraft is being repaired and will be inspected and certified before returning to service to transport our passengers to their final destination. We regret that operational disruptions delayed the flight and apologize to our passengers who were inconvenienced.“
