Boeing under pressure to provide cash refunds for grounded Dreamliners


Boeing Co. may have to provide cash to customers impacted by the 787 Dreamliner grounding, Reuters reports.
All Nippon Airways, which has had its fleet of Dreamliners grounded since January, is asking for cash refunds instead of discounts on future orders. A spokesman for Air India says that company will take the same position in favor of direct refunds.
All Nippon has 17 Dreamliners that have been out of service since battery problems forced the grounding of the fleet earlier this year. Air India has six of the aircraft and orders for 21 more.
