In a regulatory filing, United Airlines (UAL) said that Boeing (BA) notified the company that due to a manufacturing process issue relating to certain Boeing 737 MAX fuselages, six Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft scheduled for delivery in the second quarter of 2023 will be delayed. Boeing may inform United that additional Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft scheduled for delivery in the third quarter of 2023 may be delayed and/or that certain Boeing 737 MAX aircraft currently expected to be delivered in 2023 may deliver in 2024. However, at this time, United does not expect these delays to be extensive or to have a significant impact on its capacity plan for 2023.
