Boeing loses 150 orders for the 737 Max aircraft due to the global crisis
The aircraft manufacturer Boeing informed this week that it had removed 300 aircrafts from its order list of this month, including 150 of the model 737 Max, as a result of a series of client cancellations.
On its website Boeing reported at the end of the first quarter of 2020 that it had 5,049 firm orders for aircrafts, most of them 737 Max despite the company’s losses due to the aviation industry crisis.
However, the COVID-19 crisis has now hit the company that has stopped all production of commercial aircraft, following the dispositions of the United States government to contain the pandemic.

Mexico’s President Visits Victims After Train Derailment Kills 13 in Oaxaca
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum visited on Monday the victims injured in a train accident that left 13 people dead in the southern state of Oaxaca and announced financial assistance for those affected by the derailment of the Interoceanic Train, which was inaugurated in 2023.
The train, carrying 241 passengers and nine crew members, derailed on Sunday while traveling along the Interoceanic Corridor, a major infrastructure project that connects the Pacific coast with the Gulf of Mexico across the Isthmus of Tehuantepec. The corridor was one of the flagship initiatives of former President Andrés Manuel López Obrador’s administration (2018–2024).
Sheinbaum visited three hospitals in the neighboring towns of Tehuantepec and Salina Cruz, where around 20 injured passengers remain hospitalized. She also went to a funeral home to accompany the families of those who lost their lives in the accident.
According to Mexico’s Navy Secretary, Raymundo Morales, the accident occurred when one of the locomotives derailed, causing all four railcars to leave the tracks.
