The last commercial jets took off out of Worcester in 2020 in the middle of October. Since that time, the coronavirus pandemic has mostly silenced the runways at Worcester Regional Airport.
Even as a pair of coronavirus vaccines generate a glimmer of hope for some, it’s unlikely the crowds gathered in security lines at Worcester’s airport will be returning anytime soon.
“The likelihood of flights returning is not good in the short term,” Worcester City Manager Edward Augustus Jr. said. “But I do strongly believe in the long-term health and viability of the Worcester airport.”
Boeing whistleblower sounds alarm on putting 737 Max back in the air
Former Boeing staffer who told management he was afraid to let his family fly on the jet issues report raising his fears about 737 Max

Boeing’s ill-fated 737 Max has been cleared to return to flight too early and there are still concerns about problems with the airliner, according to a former Boeing employee turned-whistleblower.
Boeing’s bestselling 737 Max was grounded in March 2019 after two crashes which killed almost 350 people.
The crashes have been linked to a system installed in the aircraft called MCAS. It gave the 737 Max the same handling characteristics as earlier models, making it cheaper to train pilots for the new aircraft.
The Federal Aviation Authority has relaxed rules around the flying of the unmanned aerial vehicles, with small drones allowed to fly over people and at night from mid-March onward.
