American Airlines cancels 10,000 more flights as Boeing scrambles to fix 737 MAX

American Airlines, one of three U.S. carriers that fly the 737 MAX, is canceling almost 10,000 more flights while Boeing fixes software on the jet grounded by the Federal Aviation Administration after two deadly overseas crashes.

The latest round of cancellations from the Fort Worth, Texas-based company brings the total number of scrapped flights to 115 a day through Aug. 19. The 737 MAX, the best-selling model in Boeing’s history, has been sidelined since mid-March. Southwest Airlines, which also flies 737 MAX jets, dropped flights involving the planes through Aug. 5.
