Delta canceled over 150 flights on Thursday and Friday after dozens of its regional jets for Endeavor Air were taken out of service for inspections.

Around 45 aircraft were taken out of service late Thursday afternoon to perform inspections on their Wi-Fi systems. A Delta spokesperson told AirlineGeeks in an emailed statement that the inspections were “not an issue of flight safety.”

According to Delta, about 70 flights were canceled on Thursday and 90 more were canceled on Friday. The spokesperson stated that the carrier operates nearly 1,300 aircraft systemwide with more than 300 regional aircraft operated by regional partner carriers like Endeavor Air.

The recent cancellations have equated to about 8% of Endeavor’s flights.

“We apologize to customers whose Delta Connection flights, operated by our regional partner Endeavor Air, were disrupted Thursday,” the Delta spokesperson told AirlineGeeks. “Our customer service teams are working directly with customers to find alternative options to get them to their destination as quickly as possible while Endeavor’s Technical Operations teams work diligently to return aircraft to service.”

Delta stated that it will offer accommodations, vouchers, and rebooking assistance to customers impacted by the flight delays and cancellations.

Endeavor solely operates CRJ-700 and CRJ-900 aircraft under the Delta Connection brand. The regional carrier is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Delta.

According to data from Anuvu Pulse, Endeavor canceled 8% of its scheduled flights on Thursday, with nearly 22% canceled so far on Friday.
