Boeing production problem spills over into summer travel
Fox News
Boeing's production problems mean airlines will have fewer planes than they expected for summer travel. Delivery delays will remove nearly 9,000 seats from airline schedules.
Calhoun said during Boeing’s annual shareholder meeting that delivery delays will remove about 9,000 seats from airline schedules this summer.
The CEO didn’t give the number of planes used in that calculation, but the number of seats typically in a mid-sized Max suggests that about 50 planes are expected to be delivered late.
The situation is reminiscent of last year, when production flaws stopped Boeing from delivering bigger 787 planes, and airlines dropped some flights and routes.
