ARLINGTON, Virginia: Boeing has reported a sharp rise in airplane orders and deliveries in 2022, though it trailed Airbus for the fourth consecutive year, as its European rival dominated the Americans in the Chinese market.
Boeing delivered 480 airplanes and won 774 net new orders in 2022, while Airbus delivered 661 jets and won 1,078 jet orders during 2022.
In 2022, Boeing delivered eight airplanes to China, while Airbus delivered more than 100.
In July, China’s “Big Three” state airlines agreed to purchase 300 Airbus jets, while in September, Boeing said it would begin to re-market some of the more than 100 737 MAX jets ordered and later canceled by Chinese airlines.
In 2021, US Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo said that the Chinese government was preventing its domestic airlines from buying Boeing planes worth “tens of billions of dollars.”
Last month, Boeing delivered 69 airplanes, including 53 737 MAX planes and 15 wide bodies, as well as booked 203 new orders.
In 2021, Boeing delivered 340 planes and received 479 new orders, while its 2022 deliveries included 31 787 Dreamliners, including 10 delivered in December.
In August, the US Federal Aviation Administration approved the first 787 for delivery since 2021, after suspending deliveries in May 2021 after concerns were voiced about its inspections.
Meanwhile, Boeing Commercial Airplanes CEO Stan Deal said the company exerted considerable efforts to stabilize 737 production and resume 787 deliveries.
