Sunwing revises winter schedule without grounded Boeing 737 Max jets

Sunwing has said that all flight services during the coming winter season will now be operated without the Boeing 737 Max 8. The move has been prompted by the ongoing worldwide grounding of the Boeing 737 Max jets. Sunwing has been quick to stress that the move has been taken in order to “maintain customers’ vacation plans.” President of tour operations for Sunwing Andrew Dawson commented: “The worldwide grounding of the Boeing 737 Max 8 aircraft created operational difficulties for us during the summer months when we did not have additional capacity within our fleet to replace this aircraft type.
