"Incident: Blue Panorama B763 at Holguin on Aug 7th 2011, engine shut down in flight

A Blue Panorama Boeing 767-300, registration EI-CXO performing flight BV-7712 from Holguin to Havana (Cuba) and further on to Milan Malpensa (Italy), had to shut down an engine due to loss of engine oil pressure while enroute. The aircraft continued for a safe landing in Havana.

The onward leg to Italy had to be cancelled however. The passengers were taken to a hotel in Havana after a long wait and rebooked onto an Air Italy flight to Rome (Italy) the following day and connecting flights from Rome to Milan.

Passengers reported that an engine changed its sound before some bang was heard. The captain announced that he didn't know whether the passengers had noticed, but they needed to shut an engine down due to the loss of oil, everything was under control however.

The aircraft is still on the ground in Havana (standing Aug 14th 2011 14:00Z). "
