PETALING JAYA: A Malaysia Airlines plane that was scheduled to depart from Auckland for Kuala Lumpur at midnight Saturday has been delayed for 47 hours due to a “technical problem".  

The airline apologised on its Facebook page for the inconvenience caused to passengers who were left stranded at the airport in New Zealand because most nearby hotels had been booked out for a concert by English singer-songwriter Adele.
