@AirlineFlyer Finally, some rare *good news* in regards to the awful @prattandwhitney  GTF engine issues. @HawaiianAir says its groundings are “fully resolved.” All 18 do appear to be in service now.

@AirlineFlyer Alaska to Boeing in Q3 report: Get your shit together or we’ll order more A321neos!. “We are familiar with the A321 and its capabilities and our future fleet design will be influenced by Boeing’s ability to restart MAX production and certify the MAX10 aircraft on schedule.”

@aviator_aero Ryanair to cut UK flights by 10pc as Michael O’Leary calls Budget air tax rise ‘idiotic’.

@ByERussell Airbus wins Saudi startup Riyadh Air’s narrowbody order with 60 firm A321neos. I wonder how much Boeing’s woes influenced this decision.
