• The planemaker delivered three 777 freighters and five 767s, including three for conversion ⁠into KC-46 aerial refueling tankers by Boeing's defense division.

• Boeing booked 121 ​new orders and eight cancellations in June, for a net total of 113 new orders.

• Boeing has received 7,206 orders for the 737 ‌MAX, surpassing its previous best-selling 737 Next Generation, which received 7,159 orders.

• Canadian airline WestJet ‌canceled orders for six 737s, and Aviation Capital Group ordered ⁠six 737s, which it will ‌lease to WestJet.

• ​Through June, Boeing has booked 408 orders after cancellations and conversions.
