It’s long been known that flight attendants in the US don’t get paid until the aircraft pushes back from the stand, and this has been a grievance for them for many years. This essentially means that they have not been paid for duties such as safety equipment and security checks, checking the catering, and boarding the passengers. However, in recent years, this has finally been addressed, and some airlines are changing their contracts accordingly.

We know that when an airline places an order with a planemaker, deliveries are almost never instantaneous. Rather, a first delivery is more likely to take place in a few years. There are, of course exceptions to this rule such as picking up a few whitetail aircraft or acquiring from a lessor. Perhaps an equally uncommon exception to the norm is waiting for first delivery for nearly a decade – particularly with a jet that’s certified and in-service: The 737. But, well, that’s the case for Vietnamese airline VietJet. The carrier signed an initial agreement in 2016 and is only now about to get its first 737 MAX jets.
