The meeting with safety representatives from the airlines and unions is set for three hours at FAA headquarters in Washington and will include American Airlines, United Airlines and Southwest Airlines Co and officials from the three unions. American and United have canceled flights through early June, while Southwest has canceled flights until the end of May because of the 737 MAX grounding.
The FAA said the meeting is to help “the FAA to gather facts, information, and individual views to further understand their views as FAA decides what needs to be done before returning the aircraft to service.” The FAA added it “continues to gather all available information and data in considering the return of the 737 MAX to service.”
