Atlanta-based Delta Air Lines does not fly the Boeing 737 MAX 9 jets that have
been temporarily grounded by regulators after an incident involving an Alaska
Airlines plane of that type.

Part of the fuselage of the Alaska Airlines MAX 9 jet blew off during a flight
Friday evening. On Saturday, the Federal Aviation Administration ordered the
temporary grounding of certain 737 MAX 9 aircraft operated by U.S. airlines and
in U.S. territory pending inspections to ensure they are safe to fly.




The inspections will take four to eight hours to complete, and affect about 171
planes in operation around the world.

”Safety will always be the top priority for our Department and for FAA,” said
U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg in a written statement.

plane suffers a blowout

Alaska Airlines canceled an Atlanta-Seattle flight and a Seattle-Atlanta flight
that had been scheduled on a 737 MAX 9 jet for Saturday, according to
FlightAware.com.







The U.S. airlines that operate the 737 MAX 9 are Alaska Airlines and
Chicago-based United Airlines, according to aviation analytics firm Cirium.



Delta does not currently fly the 737 MAX 9 or any 737 MAX jets, though it does
fly other types of Boeing 737 planes including the 737-800 and 737-900ER. Delta
has also ordered Boeing 737 MAX 10 jets for delivery starting in 2025.
