Another Qantas flight has been delayed due to technical difficulties, leaving 318 passengers in Brisbane 13 hours behind schedule.
Qantas flight QF175 was due to depart Brisbane for Los Angeles at 11am (AEST).
However, due to a suspected electrical fault, the plane now won't take off until midnight.
A spokesman for Qantas said the flight was delayed due to a fault in the indicator wiring in the electrical wing of the Boeing 747.
"We needed to source a part from Sydney and as a result the crew ran out of hours," he said.
"The 318 passengers have been provided accommodation."
The latest problem came just two days after 220 passengers at Melbourne airport had to get off Sydney-bound QF418 when fumes appeared inside the plane's cabin after the engines started up on Friday morning.
The passengers were accommodated on later flights, Qantas said.
And, late on Thursday night, 308 passengers due to fly from Melbourne to London were forced to camp in the terminal overnight because of damage to a plane's wing.
Flight QF29, due to have taken off at 10.50pm (AEST) on Thursday, eventually left at 6.12am on Friday.
