It is an endless story that costs Boeing Fortunas. According BloombergThe new great operator of the American giant, 777x, will not be delivered to companies before early 2027, a new year of delay. Boeing did not comment, but last September, the aircraft manufacturer recognized the delay in the certification of the aircraft, highlighting “a mountain to do”, while saying that no technical problem had emerged. The group was presenting the first installments next year.
It is likely that this nth delay cost expensive, according to several Wall Street analysts mentioned by Bloomberg, a position between 1 and 4 billion dollars could be announced when published in its results of the third quarter.

Remember that the Swinder deliveries, presented in November 2013, would begin in 2020. The evidence had been suspended in August 2024 after the discovery of a defective room. Presented in order, these delays and production problems have generated $ 10 billion in positions on this project, said Bloomberg.
For airlines that need new aircraft, it is again the cold shower, especially for the German Lufthansa who must receive the first copies of the plane. The company has also reorganized its flight programs in the absence of the great carrier. However, this postponement is happy: the European Airbus and its A350 in direct competition with 777x. If the aircraft manufacturer also experiences production problems, its great carrier is now delivered to the airlines.
