I Gusti Ngurah Askhara Danadiputra (Ari Ashkara), the CEO of Garuda Indonesia said to Indonesian online news website detik.com that he had cancelled the current Boeing 737 MAX 8 order. In 2015, the airline proudly announced the purchase of 50 Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft.
“We have sent a letter to McAllister, the CEO of Boeing to cancel 49 aircraft,” Ari said to the newspaper on Thursday. “Our customers are losing trust in the aircraft model,” Ari continued, “and that trust will not return, even if the issues with the Boeing 737 MAX model are fixed.”
