Passengers settle massive lawsuit with Alaska Airlines and Boeing after midflight door plug failure
Three passengers who sued Alaska Airlines for $1 billion after a door plug blew out midflight in 2024 recently settled with the airline and Boeing. The Boeing 737 MAX 9 jet was flying from Oregon’s Portland International Airport to Ontario, California, on Jan. 5, 2024, when the incident prompted an emergency landing.
Boeing logged more positive momentum in June, accelerating 737 deliveries to a pace not achieved since late 2023 and padding its backlog with orders for another 116 aircraft.
India on Monday ordered its airlines to examine fuel switches on several Boeing aircraft models while South Korea ordered a similar measure on Tuesday, as scrutiny intensified of fuel switch locks at the centre of an investigation into a deadly Air India crash.
