American Airlines Extends 737 Max Cancellations Into 2020

American Airlines has announced an extension of flight cancellations into next year due to the grounding of Boeing 737 Max planes. The airline will cancel 140 flights daily, which is 2% of its total flights, and will substitute different planes for affected routes. Customers can rebook or request refunds. Boeing is working on a software update for the 737 Max, aiming to return some planes to service by year-end, but the FAA has no set timeline for recertification.
