Boeing's CFO Confirms Delivery Delays to China

No Increase in Boeing Deliveries Expected in Q2

Boeing is facing a significant challenge as China, a major market for the company, does not seem to be in a hurry to receive the jets. This situation is creating a significant hurdle for the aircraft manufacturer.
