SEATTLE (Reuters) – Allegiant Air executives staged an investor call on Thursday to assuage fears that adding 50 new Boeing Co 737 MAX jets to its fleet of used Airbus jets would undermine the carrier’s cost advantage.
“We are still a used-airplane company. We are still an Airbus company,” Allegiant CEO Maury Gallagher told investors.
