Boeing Co. delivered the fewest jets last year since the pandemic as the planemaker worked to restore confidence in its manufacturing after a turbulent year that included a two-month long strike and production curbs following a near-catastrophe.
The US planemaker handed over 348 jets, less than half its European rival Airbus SE’s 766-aircraft tally, and about a third fewer than in the prior year. Boeing also recorded 569 gross orders and 317 sales net of cancellations, conversions and a US accounting provision for at-risk deals.
