7:07Now PlayingThe US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) on Saturday ordered US airline operators to temporarily ground some Boeing 737 Max 9 aircraft for inspections. The order came after an Alaska Airlines flight had to make an emergency landing when a window and piece of fuselage blew out in midair on Friday. The hole in the aircraft was ripped open some 20 minutes after takeoff, causing the cabin to depressurize. The FAA said it was requiring immediate inspections of Max 9 planes operated by US airlines or flown in the country by foreign carrier, affecting about 171 planes worldwide.
Alaska Airlines canceled around 140 flights on Sunday, according to the FlightAware flight tracking firm, and United is expected to cancel 60 flights.Outside of the US, Alaska Airlines said there were no Max 9 planes registered in the UK that were affected by the temporary suspension of some of the aircraft.
