Crisis management PR expertise is desperately needed at this point. Can't really say that US airlines excel at that.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Yeah, Consumer Reports is who should be telling the airlines what to do. Seems legit.

I can't figure out how to make a poll.

If you were booking today, would you pay an extra $100 per ticket to fly a plane other than the 737MAX?

The question is when will this result in a buying opportunity for BA stock?
Not just yet IMO, huge risk pending the FAA verdict

DY4545 from Stockholm to Tel Aviv https://fr24.com/NAX4545/1fc6dcb2

This is getting crazier by the minute
SWEDEN: An Israeli-bound Norwegian Airlines plane was forced to return to Stockholm, as Boeing 737 MAX jets are being diverted in European skies.

 Anytime frame till these planes are going to be put back into service? Or until they get to the bottom of these two incidents?

Money talks in the US and they would never ground it unless there was a story in the US.

I think Trump is jealous that his best friend Kim can fly planes and he can't

What happened to the comments? Looks like they just got cleared out
...and they're back. That was weird.

I remember when the Intel Pentium processor came out and someone found a flaw which would affect 1 in 9b calculations but Intel batched the response terribly. People were saying the reason why they called it the pentium instead of the 586 was because when they added 100 to 486 the result was 585.9999999999999999999
