Boeing Commercial Airplanes’ second quarter revenue increased 3.0 percent compared to the same period last year to $6.2 billion, driven by higher 737 MAX deliveries, partially offset by lower 787 Dreamliner deliveries. The company delivered 121 commercial airplanes during Q2, up 53 percent compared to Q2 2021. Boeing has nearly completed the global safe return of the 737 MAX fleet, which has now flown over 1.5 million flight hours since late 2020. During the second quarter, the 737 production rate increased to 31 airplanes per month. The company continues to work with the FAA to finalize actions to resume 787 Dreamliner deliveries. Production will remain low until deliveries resume, but is expected to gradually return to five per month over time.
Commercial Airplanes secured orders for 169 737 MAX and 13 freighters during the second quarter, including seven 777-8 Freighters from Lufthansa Group. At June 30, 2022, Boeing Commercial Airplanes had an order backlog of over 4,200 airplanes valued at $297 billion.
