Loading...According to the reports Ryanair is cancelling flights and shutting down ‘loss-making’ airport bases from November. Those who have already bought tickets for this period will be suggested alternative flights.
The grounding of the Boeing 737 Max has led the airline company to such consequences. There will be no expected capacity growth in winter and in summer as well.
Despite some skeptical opinions Ryanair still hopes to have the aircraft back on track before the end of the year. Moreover, the company has an order for a new version of the aircraft with really big capacity called Max 200. It will take approximately two more months before launching its operation.
The airline has ordered 210 ones of such planes. It is expected to start operating in May, 2019. Though there has been no delivery since grounding Max 737 yet.
There were two fatal crashes with Boeing 737. As a result, 346 passengers died. One of them happened in October, 2018, the other in March, 2019.
The investigation carried out has shown that there was a contradiction between anti-stall system and pilots’ actions. The system made the nose of the plane down due to incorrect sensor readings. And the pilots could do nothing about it.
The Boeing company is working out on safety measures to fix it. It hopes to receive a certification by September.
