- Cancellations of Boeing's (BA +1.3%) 737 MAX flights are extended until March 4 by United Airlines (UAL +0.4%), making it the latest carrier to withhold the aircraft from scheduling until early March.
- American (NASDAQ:AAL) and Southwest (NYSE:LUV) last week announced extended cancellations through early March.
- United previously canceled MAX flights through early January, and the new timeline would lead to more than 8,500 flights being canceled between November and the first few days of March.
- The March date would mark nearly a year since regulators around the world issued a safety ban on the MAX following two fatal crashes.
