ANA now talking compensation for Dreamliner debacle
It was only a matter of time before it happened.
ANA, the operator of a third of the 50 Dreamliners currently delivered is talking compensation from manufacturer, Boeing.
The airline said at a news conference this week that its priority was to find out what is wrong with the aircraft that has been grounded worldwide since battery fires grounded JAL aircraft earlier in the month, but that it would seek reimbursement from Boeing once the complete picture is seen.
Boeing did not expect a "significant financial impact" from the issue in 2013 but CNN reports that they acknowledged that this might change once investigators get to the bottom of the increasingly puzzling problems with the carbon-fiber aircraft that has been widely seen as the future of commercial aviation.
