Who would make that Comair decision?

That is a very good point old chap - I wonder if BA Waterside called JNB?

Meanwhile over on TUI's Facebook and Twitter pages they are Inundated with their 1000's of their customers who are really not happy to be going on their holidays on a TUI or a Norwegian MAX right now...
(Even Enter Air who flies for some UK Greek tour operators is getting flack for not grounding their Max for now)

The bog standard tweeted reply continually coming from TUI has a slight smack of arrogance about it which, if that has come from the TUI PR department is rather disconcerting.
Although I doubt some little social media customer agent would be allowed to pass off a message like that...

However,
I would like to think that (as has been mentioned here in other posts) that all well respected TUI or DI MAX pilots would have burnt the midnight oil late into the night reading up on the MACS systems and how to deal with that - plus any spurious data that may occur. (and how to switch it all off)
