Indonesia allows Boeing 737 Max 9 planes to fly again after checks

Jan 19, 2024

Jakarta [Indonesia], January 19: Three Boeing 737 Max 9 planes belonging to Indonesia's budget airline Lion Air have been allowed to fly again after having been temporarily grounded following the Alaska Airlines incident earlier this month.
Transportation Ministry spokesperson Adita Irawati explained to local media here on Thursday that the ministry had done inspections and found that the three Boeing 737 Max 9 planes operating under Lion Air apparently had different configurations with the Alaska Airlines' Boeing 737 Max 9 aircraft, which suffered an in-flight blowout earlier this month.
"The door system is apparently different from the Alaska Airlines's. We have inspected it, communicated with Lion Air and Boeing. They are allowed to fly again," said the spokesperson.
