The number of Boeing Co. 737 Max jets back in service has now topped 100 as airlines in the U.S., Brazil and Europe add more flights with the re-certified jet.
More than 1,300 flights were logged in the week through March 3, with American Airlines Group Inc. operating almost 400 flights, according to data from aviation analytics firm Cirium. Brazilian carrier Gol Linhas Aereas Inteligentes SA, which was the first to restart services with the Max in December, had the highest utilization with its eight aircraft flying almost 11 hours a day, Cirium said in a statement.
