I’d rather pay more to fly and get there safely than pay cheap airfare on a plane that’s been rushed in production.
Really? Don’t fly because Airbus is having issues with their A321’s. Enjoy!
There hasn’t been an airline crash fatality in the US since 2009.. even then it was due to pilot error. The safety thing is DRASTICALLY overdramatized by the news. Yes, these issues are unacceptable, BUT you WILL be fine no matter what airline or airplane you fly.
@USMCAV8TR what are the issues?
@@KennyakaTIcheck Uranus
So what your saying is their plan is working.
AMTRAC calling.
All it takes is one mid-Air KABOOOM from a 737 Max in flight and suddenly this all comes to a halt.
Well, American and Delta have nearly lost two A321’s in the past year so what’s your point?
@@USMCAV8TR I wasn’t making a point. Just stating a fact.
@@ThatBearHasMoxie Fact? OK
Better to be safe than never.
There’s a reason opening statements are on MONDAY and
the HEARING regarding trump violating the gag order 7 times on TUESDAY
…shhhhhh…..don’t tell
…..lock down
What happened to all of the airplanes they already have?
Retired. Too old.
👍🤫
We got Southwest retiring their -700 fleet. At 22-24 years of age. They expected them to be replaced by the 737 MAX7
Sweet sanity 🛬
Air travel in the US is already comparatively expensive and uncomfortable.
Frontier and spirit is equal to riding in the back of a packed boxcar
Why don’t we just buy airbus?
Goes up every summer n during holidays- nothing new for last 5 decades!
once people start driving – how much you wanna bet the US and Oil Cartels will create an artificial fuel shortage? its all about control
Whatever.
As good as any excuse to maintain the bottom line because of lawsuits and fines.
Boeing isn’t going
Airbus will deliver no worries … Boeing is busy fixing…….!
Why isn’t the US improving its practically non existent passenger rail system? Other countries have great modern rail systems and it would improve the environmental impact!
Embraer could meet the Demand.
Just buy Airbus 🇪🇺
To bad the USA is years behind high speed rail 😂 . Too many monopolies in transportation
So, they are penalizing their customers because THEY couldn’t get the job done…? Yeah, I’ll gladly stay home rather than reward terrible service.
Joe Burden’s American Economic Story, keep voting Blue Great Unwashed, it’s going sooooo well
They would have more planes in the air if Boeing had done the job right in the first place.
Why would they raise prices when all of these boeing planes are falling apart in the sky.
3,2,1 and right on cued, hit’em with the pricing scams! 😉
Next year they’ll be talking about how they made record profits, bought back a bunch of stock, and have to raise prices because they’re short on pilots.
If all the planes are boeing will be hard for them to
With all the squawking and ‘gnashing of teeth’ about ‘climate change’ I’m surprised that a more extensive, high-speed train system isn’t prioritized.
Everyone looking for a reason to raise prices. PATHETIC.
Thanks Biden
There appear to be a fair number of airlines other than the big 4 like Breeze, JetBlue, Spirit, Frontier, etc…
just accept that the whole economy is in flames and this is typical in the apocalypse rather than shift blame… it is the end of the world- embrace it…
