Boeing announced Tuesday that it handed over 64 jetliners to customers in June, up from 60 deliveries in both May and June of last year.
For the first six months of 2025, Boeing delivered a total of 314 aircraft — a 12% jump compared to the same period in 2024 and the strongest first-half delivery figure the company has posted since 2018.
Even with that momentum, Boeing remains behind its European competitor Airbus, which turned over 89 jets in June and a total of 351 aircraft through the first half of the year.
Looking ahead, Boeing’s delivery numbers are expected to climb further in the second half of the year as production of its top-selling 737 MAX ramps up. The company is currently boosting monthly 737 output from 42 jets to 47.
June’s deliveries included 42 737 MAX jets and 13 of the wide-body 787 model. Among those 787s were five aircraft that had been stuck in a backlog due to seat certification delays — those jets were ultimately delivered to startup carrier Riyadh Air.
Boeing also delivered three 777 freighters and five 767s during the month. Three of the 767s are headed for conversion into KC-46 aerial refueling tankers through Boeing’s defense division.
On the orders front, Boeing took in 121 new orders in June while absorbing eight cancellations, resulting in a net gain of 113 orders for the month.
A notable shuffle also took place involving Canadian carrier WestJet, which canceled orders for six 737s. At the same time, Aviation Capital Group placed an order for six 737s that it plans to lease back to WestJet.
Boeing’s 737 MAX has now surpassed the previous record held by the older 737 Next Generation model. The MAX has accumulated 7,206 total orders, edging past the Next Generation’s all-time total of 7,159.
Through the end of June, Boeing has recorded 408 net orders after accounting for cancellations and conversions.
