The airline American Airlines will be the first airline in the world to fly commercially again on Boeing 737 MAX.
Once the Federal Aviation Administration – FAA of the USA I lift the operation ban on 737 MAX and once it meets the new requirements for changes to the plane and training of its pilots, American Airlines will be able to fly it again.
At the moment you can only do it in the United States, while the rest of the world's regulators review the FAA documentation and conduct their own investigations and studies of the proposed changes, but there is no exact time that this process could take.
So while the authorities review the changes, American reported that it will begin to carry out flights for airline personnel at the end of November, press and guests, until the end of December where it will enter into regular commercial service once approximately 2.600 Boeing pilots 737 complete required and FAA-approved training, which includes computer-based training, classroom briefings and dedicated return-to-duty training in a simulator 737 MAX.
American Airlines has closely followed with the FAA and Boeing all the changes that certification requires, that after the testing period already with passengers in the United States, the 29 from December, will resume scheduled service with two flights per day, or a round trip from Miami to La Guardia, until the 4 from January.
After that, it is expected to incorporate more aircraft 737 MAX at service during January, with up 36 departures from our Miami hub depending on the day of the week.
The aircraft will be ready thanks to the comprehensive storage program managed by the Tech Ops team. During the last 20 months and before return to service, the equipment will complete the maintenance requirements included in the airworthiness directive, including software update.
Finally, if a client does not want to fly in 737 MAX, you won't have to. Customers will be able to easily identify if they are traveling in one even if schedules change. If a customer prefers not to fly on this plane, give you flexibility to ensure you can easily re-accommodate another flight and aircraft.
For international flights like Quito, MAX flights are expected again for March 2021.
