Boeing August Deliveries Dip as 787 Handovers Fall
Boeing’s August deliveries fell from 57 a year earlier, while 787 handovers dropped to four and 15 new orders were booked, the company said.
- On Tuesday, Boeing reported 51 jet deliveries for August, a slight dip from the 53 planes delivered in July and down from 57 jets a year earlier.
- The 787 Dreamliner handovers plummeted to four units last month from nine in the same period last year, though a Boeing spokesperson stated the decline was not due to production, supply chain, or certification problems.
- August deliveries included 41 737 MAX planes, Boeing's best-selling jet, while European rival Airbus delivered 57 jets and booked 67 gross orders during the same month.
- Through August, Boeing has delivered 418 aircraft, its highest total since 2018, while the commercial backlog fell from 6,192 to 6,156 at month-end.
- Increasing output of the 787 is crucial to Boeing's financial turnaround, and the company expects to deliver 90 to 100 787s by year-end to meet annual targets.
