The first commercial Boeing 737 MAX flight appeared to have resumed flying into China for the first time in almost four years, in what would be a major breakthrough for the US plane manufacturer’s best-selling jet.
A MIAT Mongolian Airlines flight operating a round-trip between Ulaanbaatar to Guangzhou landed in the southern Chinese city at 8:18am local time on Monday, according to FlightRadar24 data. MIAT Mongolian Airlines has the flight scheduled and listed to go again, using the 737 MAX, on Oct. 17 and Oct. 24. Both trips are available for booking on the carrier’s website.
Boeing officials met with China’s aviation regulator last month to review pilot training criteria for its MAX jetliners, in a sign the planemaker is getting closer to securing all the necessary approvals to get the MAX back up and flying in China — the last remaining major aviation market not to permit its resumption.
