The Boeing 777x is set to release to the public in 2023 but will likely be set back by more delays because of the pandemic. “This schedule, and the associated financial impact, reflect a number of factors, including an updated assessment of global certification requirements, the company’s latest assessment of COVID-19 impacts on market demand, and discussions with its customers with respect to aircraft delivery timing,” quotes Boeing.
