Having been grounded worldwide in 2019 following two fatal crashes, the Boeing 737 MAX spent much of 2019 and 2020 unable to fly. However, as we approach 2021, things have begun to change as the FAA ungrounded the aircraft, followed by several other countries. Yesterday, this saw American Airlines operate its first 737 MAX flight with passengers from Miami to New York’s La Guardia Airport. More operators are set to follow in the coming months.
