Nonsense, the bar code is the only portion of the boarding pass that counts, the alteration made by the individual was confined to a single alphanumeric character that in boarding was meaningless. What bothered Spirit’s was the media propaganda that the user tried to rile up, it was sophomoric, as was Spirit’s reaction
Sad that Boeing’s good name has been tarnished so badly and the CEO who committed the deed has been rewarded with a nice financial package into retirement. The FAA, too, has lost the stellar reputation they once enjoyed. The Max is now a safe airplane to fly but I intend to never be in it
Greg S your response suggests that anything anti American is verboten, you obviously didn’t read the entire article or you’d seen that Boeing knew about many previous such cases. Boeing isn’t entirely responsible for the crash but sure are complicit in the crash and the whole sordid episode afterwards
Once the Max gets back in the air it will be perfectly safe, however, I will not fly it as I’m so pissed at Boeing’s CEO and upper management. They should have resigned in shame!
