Boeing in talks to sell up to 500 jets to China, Bloomberg News reports
Boeing's potential 500-aircraft deal could end an eight-year sales drought and reflects China's forecast to double its commercial fleet to 9,755 planes in two decades, Boeing says.
- Boeing is nearing a deal to sell up to 500 jets to China, potentially ending a sales drought since 2019.
- This possible agreement follows years of escalating US-China trade tensions and Beijing's earlier order for airlines to halt Boeing deliveries.
- Negotiations focus on aircraft types, delivery schedules, and order size amid Chinese consultations with domestic airlines for future fleet needs.
- Boeing reported a 35% year-over-year revenue rise to $22.75 billion driven by a 63% increase in deliveries, while shares rose 27% this year.
- The completion of this deal depends on ongoing US-China trade progress and could restore Boeing's presence in the world’s second-largest aviation market.
