So you pay extra for flex/free cancelation? And if it turns out to be a Boing plane you cancel your flights?
Then what? You book a new flight blindly, pay extra to be able to cancel and surprise, it's a Boing again.

Rinse and repeat ten times until you get a flight with a different plane stated in your info email. Turn up to the airport 6 months later and it's a fkkn Boing after all because they're probably the cheapest to buy.

Brb never flying again.
wut. you can always see exactly what model of plane you will be on while booking lol.

holy chit! Imagine if you could start doing this^^^

You would have an entire BOEING flight to yourself, or be forced to take the red eye if you want to be on an airbus.

I'd love it.

Only an idiot would get on a 737 Max at this point. It's clear the design is **** and is a Frankenstein creation made to avoid spending as much money as possible, and given what they have covered up so far, can only imagine what other problems it has.

Amazing that, like so many other things, planes from 50 years ago are more reliable than the **** we make brands new. Worthless generation.

True, but equipment changes happen often. Not an issue of you're flying on an all Airbus airline but with a mixed manufacturer airline you still can't be sure

Yeah I almost added that. But it has happened to me probably 1 in 10 flights max I would bet. I only actually remember it happening one time. Delta, they switched to a smaller plane, we were in Isla Mujeres MX and they called and asked if I'd delay flight to the next day they'd put us in business class and $250 each for wife and I in flight credits. LOL I was like don't twist my arm too hard to spend an extra day in paradise.

Boeing makes the best and safest planes in the world if not the universe. And I'm not influenced one bit with that answer since I had a relative work at Boeing this summer. I might have potential to become a politician with that answer.

According to The Air Current (a subscription based aviation industry news source):
United has found loose bolts and other items on 737 Max 9 plug doors as it inspects its fleet...according to three people familiar with the findings. The discrepant bolts and other parts have been found on at least five aircraft, one of the people told The Air Current.
