Grounded 737 Max jets to affect these routes in Pittsburgh

PITTSBURGH — American Airlines and Southwest Airlines recently announced that hundreds of flights would be canceled this summer due to issues with the Boeing Max 747 jet, and Pittsburgh will be affected.

According to a statement from Allegheny County Airport Authority spokesman Bob Kerlik, nonstop service from Pittsburgh to Los Angeles and Cancun will be suspended. Nonstop service to Las Vegas will also be reduced.
