Boeing’s highly anticipated 777X widebody jet is facing another setback, with deliveries now pushed back to early 2027 instead of next year, according to a Bloomberg report citing industry sources. Launch customer Deutsche Lufthansa AG is already adjusting its fleet strategy and does not expect the 777X to be operational before 2027. Investment analysts are now lowering their projections for Boeing’s free cash flow in 2026, anticipating financial strain from the extended delay. However, repeated delays and mounting costs highlight the challenges Boeing faces in regaining market confidence and meeting airline demand. With certification hurdles still looming, the 777X’s future timeline remains uncertain, casting another shadow over Boeing’s financial recovery and strategic outlook.
