Boeing CEO Kelly Ortberg is expected to travel with the US delegation for meetings with Chinese officials in mid-May.
Negotiations in May could result in Chinese commitments for up to 500 Boeing aircraft.
KEY POINTS
- This would be Boeing's first major Chinese order since trade tensions and the 737 MAX crisis.
- The deal may include both 737 MAX variants and widebody aircraft for multiple top Chinese airlines.
- Chinese regulators continue to promote domestic manufacturer COMAC, challenging Boeing's long-term market share.
- The aircraft agreement may be linked to wider US-China negotiations on tariffs and high-tech exports.
