Assuming that it's up to airline's employees (not Boeing) to remove/replace the panel/'plug as needed - and that 'loose bolts' means 'not properly torqued' rather than 'can't be', the logical conclusion is that the problem lies with the airline's employees (not Boeing).
IOW, it's far too early to be speculating about blame.
- CamperBob2 3y agoWhy would the airline need to remove/replace the plug? It doesn't appear to be the sort of thing that requires maintenance. They would have to remove the interior wall panels to inspect or work with the hardware involved. In any case the aircraft is only a couple of months old, so it probably hasn't undergone any major work by the airline yet. Arguably it should have, if the reports of pressurization warning lights are accurate and meaningful. But sadly, I can imagine them looking for a problem, not finding this one due to the need to take the whole plane apart ("Unable to replicate"), and concluding that the warnings were spurious.
