(Dallas, TX) — Dallas-based Southwest Airlines is moving its Boeing 737 Max 8 jets into storage at Victorville Airport in California.
Fort Worth-based American Airlines has also taken its Max 8’s offline. The Max 8 has been grounded almost everywhere after a couple of recent deadly crashes involving airlines in Indonesia and Ethiopia. Southwest and American are canceling hundreds of flights a day in April as a result.
Pilots with the airlines met with Boeing over the weekend to discuss what’s being done. No telling how long the planes will be out of service.
