Airbus produces the A330 at a rate of four units per month, a figure that is set to increase by 2029. While this makes the A330 the least-produced Airbus model, significant orders and innovation keep it competitive. Delta Air Lines remains the largest operator of A330 aircraft, leveraging them across international routes.

Boeing is adjusting its 737 MAX production strategy due to increased demand and a high order backlog, while competing with Airbus’s consistent performance. The company is navigating regulatory constraints and operational challenges in its attempt to boost output in 2025. Boeing’s success will depend on maintaining consistent quality and overcoming supply chain issues.
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.
