United Airlines Plans To Return Boeing 737 MAX 9 To Service By Sunday

United Airlines revealed on Wednesday, January 24, that it planned to begin returning several of its aircraft to service. United Airlines recently grounded its entire fleet of Boeing 737 MAX 9 aircraft at the request of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). This initial request to ground the fleet by the FAA came just days after an Alaska Airlines Boeing 737 MAX 9 experienced a rapid decompression after its emergency exit door plug was blown out during the flight. The FAA ordered that all Boeing 737 MAX 9 aircraft were to be grounded and comply with inspections and further guidelines before returning to service.
