The Chinese government has told Chinese airlines to halt deliveries and purchases of Boeing jets and aeroplane parts made by US companies in the latest action in what has become a frenetic trade war between Washington and Beijing. <\/p>\n

The order came after Juneyao Airlines decided to delay receiving a Boeing 787-9 plane, and President Xi Jinping announced 125% tariffs on US goods. Both of these actions were in response to US President Trump\u2019s 145% levies on Chinese goods entering the US. <\/p>\n

Bloomberg first reported the stay on Boeing deliveries, citing sources close to discussions.<\/p>\n

While the news only adds to Boeing\u2019s woes \u2013 it has slipped behind European rival Airbus in the APAC region<\/a> in recent years \u2013 the decision could be another to change quickly depending on the mood of the White House. Trump has already reversed<\/a> (and then denied reversing<\/a>) charges on smartphones, often assembled in China before being sold in the US. <\/p>\n

At least 10 Boeing 737-MAX jets were expected to be delivered to major Chinese airlines, including China Southern Airlines,\u00a0Air China\u00a0and Xiamen Airlines. <\/p>\n

China\u2019s growing market<\/h2>\n

China has been a key strategic sales arena for Boeing for several years. In its 2024 Commercial Market Outlook,\u00a0the Seattle-based manufacturer identified a likely doubling in both passenger and freight operations in the country by 2040. <\/p>\n

According to Boeing\u2019s research, China is expected to boast the world\u2019s largest aviation traffic flow inside the next 20 years. <\/p>\n

Darren Hulst, Boeing\u2019s vice president of commercial marketing, said at the time<\/a>: \u201cChina\u2019s\u00a0commercial aviation market for passengers and cargo continues to expand, driven by economic growth and airlines building their in-country networks.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Boeing said it expected China to require 8,830 aircraft deliveries by 2043, and would have hoped to benefit from a significant slice of that market before President Trump launched his tariff war. <\/p>\n

Beijing\u2019s reaction could be seen as a vote of confidence in its burgeoning domestic manufacturing market. <\/p>\n

COMAC\u2019s C-919 passenger aeroplane has been ordered and\/or received by several major Chinese airlines, including China Eastern, Air China and China Southern Airlines. In August last year, it claimed to have an orderbook of at least 1,000 planes.<\/a> <\/p>\n

Although the C-919 is currently only certified to fly in China and certain other Asian nations, it is on a trajectory for European approval<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Globally, Boeing delivered 130 commercial jets in Q1. <\/p>\n
