American Airlines
American is extending cancellations for the MAX

American Airlines remains confident that impending software updates to the Boeing 737 MAX, along with the new training elements Boeing is developing in coordination with their union partners, will lead to recertification of the aircraft this year.

They are in continuous contact with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of Transportation (DOT), National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) and other regulatory authorities.

American is extending cancellations for the MAX through November 2. By doing so, their customers and team members can more reliably plan their upcoming travel on American. In total, approximately 115 flights per day will be canceled through November 2.

American Airlines Reservations and Sales teams will continue to work closely with customers who are impacted by these cancellations.
