Yes, it’s true. A reader alerted me to the fact that, as the website says, “MAX is back.” Don’t get too excited though. 08_04_17 maxjetbackThe airline is coming back as a charter carrier focused on NCAA sports travel, so you probably won’t have much of an opportunity to fly them.

Weird, huh? Apparently, the airline has been bought by NCA Sports Group, a company which wants to provide bus and air transportation for college sports. On their website, they say that they will be starting University Airlines with A320s and CRJ-700s. Well, now they own a fleet of fancy 767-200s with all business class, so their plans have apparently changed.

So, if you see a MAXjet plane at your local airport, you’re not going crazy. There’s probably just some college team in town on a very nice charter aircraft.
