- qxfys 2y agoI have been intentionally avoiding Max since the Lion and Ethiopian (at least when I buy the ticket). However, there were occasions when the airline rescheduled my flights (for many different reasons), which resulted in me being on a max flight. While I can change one of them, changes to most of them were not practical (time-wise, effort-wise, etc). So, at some point, I have to live with the fact that flying max is unavoidable. Any idea how we can practically circumvent this?
- jfim 2y agoYou can fly carriers that don't have any Boeing planes. JetBlue, Spirit, and Frontier don't operate any Boeing planes, as far as I know.
- qxfys 2y agoAvoiding all boeing planes altogether seems to be an overkill solution to me. An older version of 737 and 777 seems to be working pretty well. At least historically.
- stevesimmons 2y agoFly airlines whose fleets are 100% Airbus?
- qxfys 2y agoI don't mind flying an older version of 737, though. :-)
- cowsaymoo 2y agoThat would probably require an active monitoring and notification system outside of the extension, maybe using a flight tracker api. It could be an added option at the purchase screen. At a minimum I may add this disclaimer here.
- mrguyorama 2y agoFly less
- qxfys 2y agoI did. But unfortunately, work does not allow me to optimize this solution.
