American Airlines Grounds Boeing 757s Over Passenger Seat Row Issue
American Airlines has grounded a portion of its Boeing 757 fleet following several incidents where passenger seats became loose in-flight. The problem is reportedly linked to a locking mechanism that secures seat rows to the aircraft's floor tracks. A total of 48 aircraft are affected and are undergoing immediate inspections to rectify the potential safety hazard. The airline is working with the FAA to address the issue but has warned travelers to expect flight disruptions.
