CEO of United Airlines, Scott Kirby, said that Boeing planes are safe despite the series of incidents involving the planes.


The CEO of United Airlines Holdings Inc. notified travelers on Monday morning that the airline is looking into several aviation mishaps affecting its commercial aircraft, including ones built by Boeing.
CEO Scott Kirby sent out a statement to customers saying, “Unfortunately, in the past few weeks, our airline has experienced several incidents that are reminders of the importance of safety.”
ABC7 reported that a United Airlines Boeing 737 with 139 passengers lost an external panel mid-air, which was later confirmed by authorities.
According to Kirby, “While they are all unrelated, I want you to know that these incidents have our attention and have sharpened our focus.”


Kirby has now admitted to a string of aviation disasters involving its Boeing aircraft, albeit the company provided no specifics.

Nothing to be concerned about.

According to Bloomberg, “new maintenance technicians” may be the cause of the problems.


I’m sorry, United and Boeing, for destroying the flying experience.
