The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) certified Boeing’s 737 MAX 10 for passenger service in October 2026 after extensive safety reviews and nearly 1,000 test flights. The approval clears the way for deliveries beginning in 2027 and completes FAA approval of all four 737 MAX variants. Boeing has 1,555 MAX 10 aircraft on order, representing more than 30% of its outstanding MAX orders, creating a material delivery and commercial-market opportunity; the aircraft is designed to compete with Airbus’s A321neo and seat up to approximately 210–230 passengers.
