Boeing is ramping up production of the 787 Dreamliner due to robust demand and strategic expansions at its North Charleston facility. The aircraft plays a critical role in fleet renewal and emissions reduction for airlines, and improvements in supply chain and regulatory support are facilitating this increase. Despite potential risks, Boeing’s focus on enhanced delivery timelines and consistent output positions the 787 as a core element of its commercial strategy.

The FAA is currently reviewing Boeing’s 737 MAX production cap, maintaining stringent oversight on assembly practices while the company works toward certification of the 737 MAX 7 and 10 variants. Past safety incidents have necessitated these production limits, impacting Boeing’s ability to fulfill large orders from major airlines. Future plans include increasing production capabilities upon resolving existing mechanical challenges.
