Boeing released its year-end jet orders and deliveries figures on Tuesday, showing that Airbus dominated its US rival in the smaller narrowbody jet sector for 2024. In this market, which caters to domestic and intermediate-range flights, Airbus delivered 602 A320neo aircraft, while Boeing delivered just 260 of its 737 MAX jets.
A significant proportion of these deliveries – over half – were A321neo models, which Boeing does not have a comparable airplane in terms of size and range. This highlights the competitive disadvantage Boeing faces in this segment.
