The Indonesian national carrier said consumers have “low confidence” in the models after two deadly crashes in six months.
By Stanley Widianto and Timothy McLaughlin March 22 at 6:55 AM JAKARTA, Indonesia — Indonesia’s national airline Garuda Indonesia is moving to cancel an order for 49 Boeing 737 Max 8 jets following the deadly crashes involving two of the aircraft, a spokesman for the company said Friday.
Ikhsan Rosan, a spokesman for Garuda Indonesia, told The Washington Post the decision to cancel the order was due to “consumers’ low confidence” in the airplanes following the crashes. The multibillion order was first announced in October 2014. [Indonesian officials confirm presence of guest pilot who reportedly saved Lion Air plane day before its fatal crash]
The issues experienced during the Oct. 28 flight were part of a string of problems with the plane starting Oct. 26, including the four flights before the one that crashed, according to the preliminary report on incident.
