...apparently the parts brought out on G-TUIF didn't fix it - so the passengers are still in Cancun. Parts are being borrowed from another 787 (any one know more?) to fix the problem.

Passengers are gearing up for the €600 each compensation claims.

I wonder if it would cost less to arrange an extra week in a resort AI to take some pressure off the airline if the passengers would forgo the claims (that is for people who have no urgent need to return)

...Later Edit

G-TUIF return flight from Cancun cancelled - so I guess that's where the parts are coming from. suppose it makes sense, the techs can bottom out the problem before the parts arrive - then just fit the needed part to get the second plane flying again.
