'Passengers are afraid of this airplane': How Boeing is handling 737 Max problem
On twitter I would get non-stop ads from Boeing pitching their military hardware. I don&#x27;t understand this, I&#x27;m not exactly in the market for buying $1 billion military airplanes and missiles. I&#x27;ve never seen a single ad pitching the quality of their civilian aircraft.<p>The economics of the situation do mean most passengers won&#x27;t have a choice in this. Unless airlines cancel their 737MAX orders and continue to run their older 737 NGs for longer while they wait for a new Boeing aircraft or to get A320s at the back of a very looong queue of Airbus orders.<p>Otherwise that queue of 5,000 or so 737 MAXs is going somewhere. If there&#x27;s real fear of flying on them then 737 MAX flights will be cheaper and A320&#x2F;757&#x2F;etc. flights will be more expensive. Price sensitive flyers will have to choose between flying and not flying.
