November sees Boeing deliveries increase in number, while orders fall

Having delivered just 35 aircraft in October this year, Boeing Co. has announced that November deliveries reached 48 units. However, the number of orders for new aircraft fell from 122 in October, which included 106 737 MAX airplanes and ten 787 Dreamliners, to just 22 in November, comprising 18 737 MAXs and three 767s.

Of the 48 delivered planes, ten were to Southwest Airlines and five to United Airlines. Boeing is currently also playing catch-up with its 787 Dreamliner after deliveries ground to a halt over safety issues back in May 2021, and only resumed this August after the company received Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) approval for its inspection and modification plan. The American planemaker is also facing impending delays with its beleaguered 737 MAX programme as it has so far failed to obtain approval for an extension from Congress of a Dec. 27 deadline imposing a new safety standard for modern cockpit alerts after the two fatal 737 MAX crashes.

The November deliveries include 32 737 MAXs, up from 23 737s in October, but still down from 37 737s delivered in September. Boeing has delivered 411 airplanes in the first 11 months of 2022, including 333 737s and 21 787s. Boeing’s orders net of cancellations for the year rose in November to 571 from 550, and its commercial backlog rose from 4,441 to 4,415 orders.
