Chinese Airlines Halt Boeing Deliveries Amid Trade Tensions

In the latest twist of the ongoing trade saga between the United States and China, Chinese airlines are now opting to reject deliveries of Boeing aircraft. This decision unfolds against a backdrop of escalating trade hostilities, making it a striking illustration of how geopolitics can directly impact corporate strategies.

Boeing’s CEO, Kelly Ortberg, revealed to CNBC on Wednesday that his company currently has three 737 Max airplanes stationed in China, awaiting acceptance. However, in a proactive move, Boeing has flown two of these aircraft back to the United States and plans to retrieve the third one shortly.

“They have indeed ceased accepting aircraft deliveries due to the current tariff landscape,” Ortberg stated.

With about 50 planes scheduled for dispatch to China this year, Ortberg expressed a pragmatic approach moving forward. “For those planes not yet constructed, we will consider redirecting them to other clientele,” he noted. “As for the aircraft already completed, we’ll engage in what we call remarketing. There is a robust demand for the Max model among various customers.” Ortberg emphasized, “We won’t linger too long on this; I refuse to permit this situation to derail our recovery.”

The trade war escalated earlier this month when President Donald Trump raised baseline tariffs on Chinese imports to a staggering 145 percent, prompting Beijing to retaliate with a 125 percent tariff on U.S. goods, according to Reuters.

In a dramatic Twitter announcement, Trump urged Boeing to “default China” for their refusal to accept the aircraft they had previously agreed to purchase.

Trump’s ultimatum has implications that go beyond mere corporate negotiations; it potentially suggests a legal strategy where Boeing could seek damages for breach of contract. As Ortberg’s remarks came on the heels of Boeing reporting a narrower-than-expected loss for the first quarter—highlighting a more favorable cash burn than analysts had anticipated—the stakes continue to rise.

In what could signal a thawing in trade relations, China recently announced exemptions for specific U.S. imports from its 125 percent tariff, as reported by Reuters. This move indicates Beijing’s growing concern over the detrimental effects of the trade war, prompting the government to solicit businesses to identify critical goods that they need without tariffs.

Trump too has taken steps to exempt certain Chinese imports, including electronics, from these high tariffs, though they remain subject to a 20 percent tariff aimed at addressing the ongoing fentanyl crisis.

In an interview with Time, Trump acknowledged ongoing discussions with China, mentioning a call from Chinese President Xi Jinping regarding trade. However, Beijing contests that such talks are indeed taking place.

“I don’t think that’s a sign of weakness on his behalf,” Trump remarked about Xi. “There’s a number at which they will feel comfortable. But we can’t let them profit by a trillion dollars at our expense.”
