Boeing Co (NYSE:BA, ETR:BCO) announced on Tuesday that it delivered 55 aircraft to customers in September, as the company is set to record its best year since 2018.
The company delivered 40 of its 737 Max planes during the month to customers including Southwest Airlines, United Airlines, China Southern and leasing firm AerCap.
Ryanair, the European discount carrier, received 10 of the 737 Max planes delivered in September.
Boeing has delivered 440 aircraft in the first nine months of 2025, compared with 568 in the same period of 2018.
Last month, Boeing CEO Kelly Ortberg said the company expects to produce 42 of the 737 Max planes per month by the end of the year.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has capped the company’s 737 Max production at 38 a month following two deadly crashes of the aircraft, including the blowout of a door plug on a flight in January 2024.
Ortberg expressed his optimism about the approval process with the FAA to an audience at a Morgan Stanley investor conference in September.
Boeing’s main competitor, Airbus, has reported 507 deliveries to customers so far in 2025.
Boeing shares added 0.5% at $216.70 in midday trading on Tuesday.
