Overview

  • Boeing handed over 44 jets in November, a 17% drop from October’s 53, while Airbus delivered 72.
  • Year to date through November 30, deliveries reached 537 aircraft, roughly 69% higher than the same point in 2024.
  • The company booked 164 gross orders in November with 38 cancellations for 126 net and closed the month with a 6,019-aircraft backlog.
  • Order momentum featured 74 commitments for the delayed 777X, including 65 from Emirates at the Dubai Airshow.
  • Airbus cut its 2025 delivery target to 790 due to a quality issue as IATA reported rising airline confidence in Boeing’s delivery performance and Boeing’s CFO projected positive cash flow in 2026.
