I really want badly to boycott Boeing.

It's seems impossible that on some routes we do not have alternative to Boeing planes. Consumers should be allowed to decide with their wallet. Isn't that the whole purpose of the Capitalist system?!

Weeelll, it's a duopoly, and consumers rarely get details about the aircraft prior to booking their tickets. So we have at best an indirect say in what planes get acquired and used by the airline.

Booking sites like Kayak let you filter flights by aircraft model, but it's a pretty rare feature from what I've seen.
