From the Guardian:
https://www.theguardian.com/business/20 ... -falls-offWith passenger concerns rising, Kayak, a leading online travel agent, has updated filters to allow customers to exclude flights that use Boeing’s troubled 737 Max planes.
Kayak introduced an aircraft filter in March 2019 but after the Alaska Airlines incident it reworked the setting, making it more prominent on the search page and adding the ability to distinguish between 737 Max 8 and Max 9 planes, since only the latter has been grounded by the FAA.
I was wondering if something like this would pop up. I'm going to use it to avoid flying on Boeing jetliners in the future.
