Boeing 777X delayed again, and airlines are not pleased

SMRTR summary

Boeing's 777X jumbo jet faces another delay, now expected in 2026 - six years later than originally planned. Development issues, testing setbacks, and an ongoing labor strike are causing the delay, frustrating airlines and potentially giving competitor Airbus an advantage in the mid-size cargo market. Boeing also plans to cut 17,000 jobs amid financial struggles and a worker strike demanding 40% wage increases.
