US airline no longer allows passengers on 737 Max to switch for free
A US airline will no longer allow passengers to rebook for free if they are flying onto a Boeing 737 Max aircraft. United Airlines has dropped its flight change and refund policy for passengers who find themselves booked onto the aircraft, which was responsible for two deadly crashes. The aircraft has now been back in the skies since December 2020 in the US and February 2021 in Europe after being declared safe to return to service by the FAA and EASA respectively. A statement from the airline reads: “The Boeing 737 MAX is a safe and efficient aircraft which offers the latest amenities and technology for our customers and crew. Now that our MAX fleet has been serving our customers for several weeks, standard rebooking and change policies will apply for any customer booking travel on a MAX aircraft after 7 April 2021.”<br/>
