I have a main cabin ticket on American Airlines issued by a tour company. Is there a mechanism that I can use to sacrifice my many flight points to get a first class seat? I do not have a gold status.
And should all Boeing 737 Max 8 jetliners be grounded?
The Ethiopian Airlines jet that crashed shortly after takeoff on Sunday, killing all 157 people aboard, is the same make and model as the plane that crashed off Indonesia last year with 189 deaths
Officials lost contact with Flight 302, a Boeing 737 Max 8 jetliner flying from Addis Ababa, the Ethiopian capital, to Nairobi, the Kenyan capital, at 8:44 a.m. (1:44 a.m. ET), authorities said.
That was about six minutes after the plane took off from Bole International Airport, they said. Tewolde GebreMariam, the airline's chief executive, said that the captain reported "difficulties" and asked to return to the airport but that then the plane "was lost from the radar - it disappeared."
The Ethiopian Airlines jet had been in service for only four months and had no known technical issues, GebreMariam said.
In late October, Lion Air Flight JT610 - also a Boeing 737 Max 8, which had been in service for only 2½ months - crashed into the sea shortly after takeoff from Jakarta, the Indonesian capital.
Indonesian authorities said that contact with Flight JT610 was lost after 13 minutes and that the captain reported a "flight control problem." Pilots flying the same plane a day earlier had experienced a similar problem, authorities said.
I'm kinda nervous. I know I shouldn't overthink these things but these 2 recent flights that crashed on these new planes make me worry. I have a trip coming up next month and the flight is a 737 max 8, I had actually picked this specific flight back when I booked because I thought it'd be nice to fly on a new plane… Now I'm having second thoughts. The airline I'm flying with is safe btw, but if these planes have some problem that wouldn't matter much…
Would you all fly with that plane or request a change?
Okay, so I have never been on an airplane before so I don't really understand anything about what we're doing no matter how much I read google. We're going to Honolulu in May and we have a 55 minute connection between one of our flights. Is this enough time to make it? We're flying out of Orlando to Texas where we will have the 55 minute layover. We bought all of our tickets together with United. I have read that if you book with the same airline, if you miss your connection they will get you on the next flight at no charge. Is that true?
