United and other airlines have repeatedly delayed when they expect the Boeing 737 Max to return, now forecast for January.
In mid-March, aviation regulators worldwide ordered airlines to stop flying the Boeing 737 Max after one operated by Ethiopian Airlines crashed shortly after takeoff, killing all 157 on board. That was less than five months after a Lion Air 737 Max crashed in a similar point in flight in Indonesia, which killed all 189 people on the plane.
Boeing is scrambling to finalize a software fix and new training material, but it hasn't yet handed it over to regulators, casting doubt on when the planes will fly again. Boeing has repeatedly said it expects regulators to deem the planes airworthy in the fourth quarter. But airlines have canceled thousands of flights without a clear timeline so they are not stuck paying for passengers' flight changes or reshuffling crews at the last minute.and regulators to do their thing."
