United Airlines on Friday removed the grounded Boeing 737 Max from its flight schedule until early March.
Dawn GilbertsonUnited Airlines on Friday removed the grounded Boeing 737 Max from its flight schedule until early March, joining Southwest and American in taking another round of proactive steps to reduce last-minute flight cancellations if the plane's return continues to be delayed.
Since the plane was grounded in March following two fatal crashes in five months that killed 346 people, airlines have had to repeatedly shuffle their schedules to make do with fewer planes. Southwest had 34 Max planes in its schedule at the time of the grounding, American, 24 and United, 14. In a Max"progress report'' on Monday, Boeing said it is still aiming for FAA certification of its proposed software fix for the Max and the plane's ungrounding by the end of the year.
