Examples

“But already there are some commercial airlines in the United States which use ⟳ airplanes capable of more than 200 miles an hour.”

“They and the airline itself described an internal process ⟳ that requires multiple departments to manually redesign the airline’s schedule ⟳ – a system that works “the vast majority of the time,” Southwest said in a statement. […] Other airlines managed to recover ⟳ by early this week; at Southwest, the cancellations only increased.”
