Loading...Travel season is on. It is supposed to be the time of the highest income for airlines. But some airline companies and airports face certain difficulties. And as a result they cannot meet their customers’ expectations and demands.
Taking into account two crashes of the 737 Max over the past five months regulators are still looking into the reliability of the plane. In fact, 346 people were killed.
Thus, in the interests of safety, U.S. biggest airlines have decided on grounding the 737. They have lost six dozen Boing 737 Max. The companies bought theses new planes to operate their routes.
American Airlines, Southwest Airlines and United Continental have made up their minds to ground the Max from their routes in August. Consequently, they need to manage thousands of flights somehow. Especially, it is becoming challenging at the season with no vacant seats.
United Airlines announced 2,410 flight cancellations in during summer months owing to the schedule not including flights operated by the Max to Aug. 3. Southwest, the largest Max operator with 34 carriers, has claimed Aug. 5 on its schedule as the date of Max’s return to the fleet; American has set Aug. 19.
It is likely that the dates can change. As aircraft safety is still being questioned. And chaos is inevitable. The Max return to commercial service remains unknown.
