Boeing delivered a total of 44 commercial jets in November, a reduction of nine aircraft from the previous month. The majority of deliveries by the US planemaker consisted of its single-aisle Boeing 737 MAX family, alongside six 787 Dreamliners and six freighters.

This is significantly lower than deliveries completed by rival Airbus last month. Although downgrading its full-year delivery estimate for 2025, the European planemaker managed a total of 72 jet deliveries in November and remains on track to hit its yearly goal of almost 800 deliveries.

The manufacturer saw a 17% dip in deliveries month-to-month, dropping from 53 deliveries in October to 44 in November. Over 70% of deliveries last month were 737 MAX aircraft, with Boeing completing 32 MAX deliveries to a total of 18 customers, including five aircraft to US low-cost carrier Southwest Airlines — which is the world’s largest 737 MAX operator with nearly 300 airframes in its fleet – along with 3 MAXs for American Airlines and two apiece for Alaska Airlines and United Airlines.

While deliveries were slower than anticipated, Boeing had a big month in terms of aircraft orders, buoyed by a strong showing at the Dubai Airshow 2025. The planemaker secured a total of 126 net new orders, taking into account 164 new orders minus 38 cancellations.

Over half its net orders were for the upcoming 777X widebody, which has a list price of over $440 million. The largest individual order came from Emirates for 65 additional 777Xs in a deal worth upwards of $38 billion at list prices. These commitments joined Emirates’ existing orders for the 777X, taking it to 270 total orders for Boeing’s new widebody product.

China Airlines also added another nine 777Xs to its orderbook, while there were significant 787 Dreamliner orders logged from the likes of Etihad Airways, Gulf Air and Uzbekistan Airways.

Entering the final month of 2025, both Boeing and Airbus have a much clearer picture of their full-year delivery figures. By the end of November, Boeing had delivered a total of 537 jets in 2025, of which almost 400 were 737 MAXs. The company has also secured over 900 new net orders over 2025, taking into account roughly 100 cancellations from customers.

As it stands, Boeing is on track to achieve its highest annual delivery figure since 2018, when it completed 806 deliveries. However, even with a strong December to round off the year, the manufacturer will still be a couple of hundred deliveries behind its 2018 achievement.

Over at Airbus, the European manufacturer recently downgraded its full-year delivery estimate from 820 to 790 aircraft, reflecting its recent supplier quality problems with the Airbus A320. Airbus’ all-time highest annual delivery total was set in 2019, when the company managed an impressive 863 deliveries.
