AMR aims return to normal flight schedule on Sunday
WASHINGTON, April 11 (Reuters) - AMR Corp's (AMR.N: Quote, Profile, Research) American Airlines said on Friday it canceled about 200 MD-80 flights for Saturday and would return to a full, normal schedule on Sunday.
By late Friday afternoon, American had reinspected and returned to service 231 of its 300 MD-80 aircraft, the company said in a statement.
American grounded more than 3,000 flights this week to reinspect the wiring on its MD-80 aircraft, a safety step that affected hundreds of thousands of travelers. (Reporting by Julie Vorman; Editing by Andre Grenon)
