because when you talk with people in the industry, when you talk to airline executives, very few people expect the certification to happen this year doesn't mean it won't happen, could happen shortly after the new year, but that is the latest with regard to the 737 max now let's talk about thanksgiving travel. 55 million people overall are expected to travel at least 50 miles according to aaa for the thanksgiving holiday period. and in terms of those who are flying over this 10 to 12 day period surrounding thanksgiving, it is an increase of more than 3% compared to last year so what are the problems out there? biggest problem happens to be with the weather the airfares are not an issue. they are close to where they have been in terms of historic lows they continue to trend far lower than they were just a few years ago. we mentioned the max the grounding of the max does have an impact you with looking at least 70 max planes that were scheduled to be in service by the airlines this year, probably closer to 110 that they thought they would have they don't have them we are talking about sou
