Boeing Troubles Continue As Virgin Australia’s 737 MAX Deliveries Face Delays

Brisbane-based Virgin Australia has received news from American plane manufacturer Boeing that its anticipated 737 MAX 8 and MAX 10 deliveries will need to wait as the manufacturer has experienced production delays. The airline regrettably shared the news with all Virgin staff on March 15th. With ten of the new variants on order, most of these were expected to be delivered this year, aiding the airline's gradual expansion (since it severely trimmed its international network in the depths of the COVID-19 pandemic and during its time in voluntary administration).
