Korean Air Lines<\/strong> will inspect the remaining 24 Airbus A330 aircraft in its fleet after one overshot a runway in the Philippines last month, the carrier\u2019s president said Wednesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Batches of A330s will be taken out of service in phases for a \u201cfull-scale, comprehensive safety inspection\u201d in conjunction with external consultants, Woo Kee-hong said in a meeting with officials from South Korea\u2019s Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cKorean Air is aware of the gravity of the recent events involving our A330 aircraft,\u201d he said, according to a transcript the airline shared with Bloomberg News<\/a>. In addition to the 24 A330s being inspected, another six will be retired.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe take recent events very seriously,\u201d Woo told the officials. \u201cSafety remains our top priority, and we will analyze and check all safety obstacles that may exist at Korean Air, from top to bottom, and make great efforts to improve them, if needed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The airline is considering early retirement of older aircraft and is expanding safety-related investment and training, Woo said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are providing all necessary technical support to Korean Air,\u201d an Airbus spokesman said. \u201cWith reference to the incident in Cebu, we cannot comment on the ongoing investigation, which is being undertaken by the relevant authorities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to the incident in the Philippines, last Sunday, a Korean Air A330 bound for Sydney had to return to Seoul due to problems with an engine, Yonhap reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
