Japan’s Skymark Airlines will have to wait longer for its first Boeing 737 MAX aircraft, with delivery now expected in the second quarter of 2026.
The revised timeline reflects ongoing adjustments in aircraft production and delivery schedules that have affected multiple airlines worldwide. Skymark had planned to introduce the new-generation narrowbody as part of its fleet renewal strategy.
The Boeing 737 MAX is designed to offer improved fuel efficiency and lower operating costs compared to older variants. Its arrival is expected to support Skymark’s domestic network expansion and long-term operational efficiency goals.
Delivery delays continue to impact carriers globally, prompting airlines to adjust capacity planning while maintaining focus on fleet modernisation.
