United extends 737 Max cancellations through June

United Airlines will pull its 14 Boeing 737 Max aircraft from its schedules through June 4 as the US FAA’s safety review of the grounded aircraft extends into 2020 and carriers remain uncertain when those fleets could be cleared to return to service. The carrier had previously removed the Max from its schedule through March 4. The airline has 14 737 Max jets in storage, with 144 more of the type on order. American Airlines and Southwest Airlines, which have extended cancellations of their Max fleets through April, have removed the aircraft from their schedules one month at a time. United’s announcement departs from that month-by-month cancellation trend. The airline will cancel up to 108 flights per day through June during the grounding said a spokesman. <br/>
