Well, lucky for you, Alaska grounded their 737 MAX fleet a few days ago, so you won’t be flying on them if your trip is anytime soon.

Edit: I didn’t realize they were getting them back into service so quickly… oops 😬

It was reported earlier today that 18 were already back in service after completing inspections, and the remaining inspections would be completed in the coming days.

They only grounded their max-9's. The others are still in operation.
