Gross orders were 909.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/en\/2021\/12\/indonesia-lifts-flight-ban-boeing-737-max.html\">Indonesia lifts flight ban on Boeing 737 MAX.<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Airbus sold 771 airplanes in 2021, giving a net total of 507 after cancellations, almost twice its 2020 level. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After slashing production due mainly to the pandemic, planemakers are seeing more demand for medium-haul passenger jets and freighters, despite global concern over Omicron.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Boeing largely met analyst expectations on aircraft deliveries, handing over a total of 340 aircraft to customers in 2021, up from 157 in 2020, but down from 380 in 2019 and a record 806 jets in 2018, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/business\/aerospace-defense\/boeing-wins-annual-jet-order-race-adjusted-basis-2022-01-11\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Reuters<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Its 2021 numbers include a severely depressed delivery tally of 14 787 Dreamliner twin-aisles &#8211; compared to 41 in 2020 &#8211; as intensive inspections over production flaws compounded delays from the COVID-19 crisis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/en\/2021\/12\/faa-issues-safety-directives-777-200-engines.html\">FAA issues safety directives for Boeing 777-200 engines.<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In December, the latest data showed Boeing delivered 38 planes to customers, including 32 of its 737 MAX jets, one P-8 maritime patrol aircraft to Norway, and five widebodies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Boeing had 79 net orders for aircraft in December, after cancellations and instances where a buyer converted an order for one type of aircraft to another. That included an order for 50 737 MAX airplanes from Allegiant Air , seven jets for an unspecified customer, 19 767 freighters for United Parcel Service, and four 777 freighters for Atlas Air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Boeing continues to dominate booming sales of freighters as lockdowns boost e-shopping. It notched 84 orders for new production freighters, surpassing its previous record of 83 set in 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Airbus for its part booked the first orders for a new A350 freighter &#8211; albeit partially by swapping existing orders for passenger versions to the cargo planes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-post-grid
