United Airlines CEO, Scott Kirby, flew to Toulouse to discuss a potential Airbus A321neo deal amid Boeing 737 MAX 10 delays. This move comes as United approached Airbus about purchasing more A321neo jets to fill the void caused by the MAX 10 delays. Meanwhile, Ryanair expressed hope for the MAX 10 to be certified by the end of the year and flying by the start of 2025. Additionally, financiers in the airline industry are gathering amid Boeing's safety crisis, with Ryanair offering to take any MAX 10 orders dropped by US airlines. Boeing's safety issues have come under scrutiny, with reports of a 737 MAX 9 jet losing an exterior panel mid-flight and a mid-air cabin blowout tipping Boeing into a new safety crisis. The FAA barred Boeing from expanding the production of its 737 MAX aircraft after the cabin panel blowout. The situation has led to a loss of experience in the aviation industry since the COVID-19 pandemic, potentially contributing to recent problems at Boeing.
