Air Canada to not fly the MAX until June 30
Air Canada said Wednesday it has removed Boeing's 737 MAX from its flight schedule until June 30, 2020, a day after the planemaker warned the grounded jet would not win regulatory approval until mid-year. The airline, which has 24 MAX aircraft in its fleet, said the decision was based on operational considerations after Boeing revealed that the MAX's return to service would be further delayed. The final decision on the aircraft's return would be based on the company's safety assessment, following a green light from the govt and approval by the FAA and Transport Canada, Air Canada said. The carrier had previously said it would not fly the MAX until Feb 14, 2020. <br/>
