Boeing 777X Commercial Debut Delayed to Early 2027

Boeing 777X Commercial Debut Delayed to Early 2027

Boeing's 777X airplane will now start flying passengers in early 2027.

This is a delay because the company needs more time to get the plane approved.

The original plan was to have it flying in 2020, but the process has taken longer than expected.

The delay is happening because the plane needs to be certified, which means proving it's safe.

The airline that ordered the plane first, Lufthansa, is planning for it to arrive later.

Boeing's CEO said they're still working on getting the plane ready.
