Increased 737 Handovers Drive Growth Amid Ongoing Competition
Boeing has delivered 475 commercial aircraft in the first nine months of 2026, an 8% increase from the same period in 2025, driven by a rise in 737 deliveries. The company remains behind Airbus in terms of deliveries, but is on pace to exceed last year’s total. Boeing also reported a strong September for new orders, with a Turkish Airlines order for 100 737 MAX jets being a significant contributor. The delivery figures were reported by AeroTime.
