包括阿拉斯加航空、西南航空和联合航空在内的美国主要航空公司将于本周与波音公司高管会面,讨论该公司解决质量控制问题的策略。 Major U.S. airlines, including Alaska Airlines, Southwest, and United, will meet with Boeing executives this week to discuss the company's strategies for addressing quality control issues. 继一月份阿拉斯加航空公司一架喷气式客机发生面板爆炸事件后,波音公司的制造问题减缓了向航空公司交付飞机的速度,迫使航空公司减少航班时刻并考虑替代飞机制造商。 Following an incident in January where a panel blew out of an Alaska Airlines jetliner, Boeing's manufacturing troubles have slowed down the delivery of planes to carriers, forcing airlines to reduce their schedules and consider alternative aircraft manufacturers. 波音公司飞机生产放缓预计将在 2021 年第一季度给该公司造成 40 亿美元至 45 亿美元的损失。 Boeing's slowdown in aircraft production is estimated to cost the company between US$4 billion and $4.5 billion during the first quarter of 2021.
