SEATTLE (Reuters). –Boeing Co stated Tuesday that in November it gave 34 planes to airlines and added 109 to its 737 MAX orders.

Investors closely monitor the delivery tally as they generate cash from the coronavirus crises. This compares to 27 aircraft in October and seven during the same year when Boeing (NYSE: ) was going through the 737 MAX safety crisis.

Boeing was unable to deliver the advanced carbon-composite 787 Dreamliner in November. This jet remains in limbo due to ongoing inspections and retrofits.

Last month’s delivery of 34 aircraft included 28 737 MAXplanes. 10 were delivered to Ryanair, a European low cost carrier. Boeing stated that it also handed over one P-8 maritime surveillance aircraft to Norway.

FedEx Corp (NYSE) had one remaining widebody jet: 1 767 for FedEx Corp. United Parcel Boeing announced that one of the 747-8s for Egyptian defense ministries and two 767-tankers were for U.S. Air Force.

Many airlines had to shut down their passenger aircraft during the pandemic. It has increased cargo demand on specially equipped freighters.

Boeing delivered more aircraft this year than the 118 it shipped during the first eleven months of 2020.

Boeing received 91 aircraft orders in November after cancelations and cases where buyers converted an order to another type.

It received 109 gross orders. They were all for the 737 MAX aircraft, which was returned to service late 2020 following a two-year safety ban.

The deal includes 72 MAX aircraft from Akasa, India. This order is almost $9 billion on list price and could allow the U.S. airplanemaker to gain ground in one of its most promising markets.

The order also contained a 30 737 MAX order for Miami-based 777 Partners. This company owns a part of Canadian low cost carrier Flair Airlines. It also had an unannounced order for seven 737 MAXs to Southwest Airlines (NYSE:).

Gleichzeitig wurden 18 737 MAX orders cancelled by buyers.

Boeing stated that the gross orders increased by 720 to 829 or 373 to 457 following cancellations, conversions, and more stringent accounting standards.
