Demand for 737 Max and new freighter jet boosts Boeing orders in January

Boeing released data Tuesday showing it added 75 net new jet orders in January, boosted by both the launch of its big new freighter jet, the 777-8F, and more orders for the 737 Max.

Airplane deliveries remained low at 32 airplanes for the month, just three of which were the larger widebody aircraft built in Everett.

The Qatar Airways order for the new freighter added a net increase of 14 orders for the forthcoming 777X, after subtracting 20 orders for the passenger version that the airline converted to the new cargo model.
