“We sent a letter to Boeing asking them to cancel the order,” AFP quotes a company representative.

According to him, the reason for this decision is that the passengers of Garuda Indonesia have lost confidence.

He clarified that the company has already received one of the 50 aircraft under the contract worth $ 4.9 billion. Currently, as noted, the question of whether to return this ship or leave is not resolved.

Earlier it was reported that the damage to Boeing in 2019 due to the latest air crashes could reach $ 2.4 billion.

March 10, Boeing 737 Ethiopian Airlines crashed a few minutes after departure, killing 157 people.

Data from the flight recorders, as reported, indicate that the tragedy is similar to the crash of a similar airliner in Indonesia in the autumn of 2018.
