Boeing commercial jet deliveries dropped last year by more than a third compared to 2023, as the aerospace giant wrestled with multiple major challenges. In data released Tuesday, Boeing (NYSE: BA) reported it delivered 348 airplanes to customers in 2024, down from 528 the year prior.
The sizeable loss caps a rough year for Boeing. A strike by the machinists who assemble the best-selling 737 Max, along with the 777 jet and the 767 cargo plane at factories in Renton and Everett, Washington, halted production at those facilities and hampered Boeing’s delivery capability.
