This is why I always prefer flying with airlines that have rigorous pre-flight checks. Hydraulic issues are serious—imagine if it failed mid-air. Thank God the pilot was alert. Hope Etihad compensates passengers for the inconvenience though, yaar. Flights are already so expensive.

I used to work in aviation maintenance. A hydraulic leak can cascade into a complete system failure. This was a wise call. Better to spend a day stuck in Chennai than risk a catastrophe. Well done, Etihad crew.

I was supposed to be on this flight! Just got the cancellation message. While I'm relieved everyone is safe, I'm worried about my connecting flight to London. Etihad customer service is still not responding. Thoda aur proactive ho sakte the! ✈️

Our safety record in Indian skies has been improving, and this shows why. Pilots and ground staff are taking things seriously. No unnecessary risks. Just wish the airline had shared updates faster.

Standard procedure. Hydraulic issues are common but can be dangerous if ignored. The real test is how quickly they rebook everyone. I hope Etihad handles it smoothly without leaving passengers stranded.
