industry sources cited by Reuters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to one of the sources, a cumulative total of 20 A321neo aircraft has had to be rescheduled and deferred into the fourth quarter, partly as a consequence of this quality-related disruption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Flight Safety Unaffected<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the operational delays caused by this setback across the
