American looks for clarity on MAX status; delays 737NG seat upgrades
American Airlines is confident that 2 stakeholder gatherings in the coming days will help provide clarity on when the Boeing 737 MAX fleet will be cleared to fly again, a top executive said. “Both of these are really big meetings, I think,” American president Robert Isom said Tuesday. “I expect, and I hope, that we have some better clarity to the path to get the aircraft back up and flying.” American operated 24 of the grounded MAXs and has removed them from its schedule through Aug 19. Isom said the carrier will decide in early June if further adjustments are needed. “We’ve got some dates in early June where we’ve got to really take a look and make sure that we’ve got a path forward and clearly laid out,” he said. “If not, we’ll make the decisions to ensure that we’re taking care of our team and customers." <br/>
