Boeing to resume airplane deliveries to China next month, ramp up Max production, CEO says

  • Boeing CEO Kelly Ortberg announced on April 15, 2025, the company aims to raise 737 MAX production at its Renton, Washington facility.
  • This plan follows a January 2024 FAA-mandated production cap of 38 MAX jets per month after a window panel incident on an Alaska Airlines flight.
  • Boeing recently increased 787 Dreamliner output from five to seven planes per month, signaling improved production processes supporting higher MAX rates.
  • Ortberg explained that the FAA will apply the same evaluation approach to the planned 737 MAX production increase, with a goal of securing approval by mid-2025 to manufacture 42 jets each month.
  • The production boost could help Boeing recover from losses, though Ortberg flagged trade partner retaliation as a greater concern than tariffs on supplies.
