@AvWeekScho Hawaiian Airlines says it is still negotiating 787 deferrals with Boeing, but now expects first two to enter service in 2022 or 2023 (vs 2021 as prev planned).
@hharteveldt .@SouthwestAir says it won’t block middle seats “forever.” SWA has added 6900 flights to keep onboard capacity low enough to keep middle seats open. #airline #earnings $LUV.
@hharteveldt There is “energy behind” having TSA conduct temperature checks for passengers, says @AirlinesDotOrg members are “unanimous” in support for these as well. $LUV #airline #earnings.
@MaxK_J Hold on to your hats, folks… @BoeingAirplanes aims to deliver 450 stored #737Max jets within one year, reports @jmhdinger.
@simonjmcnamara We need a less blunt tool than simply closing down an entire country for travel as we saw in Spain over the weekend..
