Singapore Airlines has grounded a pair of Boeing 787-10s owing to premature deterioration of the high pressure turbine (HPT) blades in their Rolls-Royce Trent 1000 TEN engines. Singapore Airlines operates nine 787-10s. The only other Trent-powered 787-10 is a single example delivered recently to All Nippon Airways. The other 12 787-10s in service - including one operated by Boeing - are powered by General Electric GEnx-1Bs. Previously the Trent 1000 suffered durability issues with their intermediate pressure compressor blades, requiring redesign work. Rolls-Royce added that they are working on finding a fix to the wear issue.

On the 31st of March 2019, Air Jamaica has laid off all of its employees. The airline has been in financial trouble since their only operating aircraft, a Boeing 757- 200 crash landed at Guyana’s Cheddi Jagan International Airport on November 9, 2018. The airline had been unable to operate since.

Tour operator TUI is expecting a $225 million once off impact on its earnings due to the grounding of the Boeing 737 MAX.
TUI has 15 MAX jets that are affected by the grounding and are expecting to receive another 8 of this type by the end of May 2019. They have however, put a contingency plan in place by activating spare aircraft within the fleet and by leasing-in additional aircraft to secure their capacity for the Easter holidays.
