American Airlines has ordered a total of 260 new aircraft, including 85 Boeing 737 MAX 10s, an equal number of Airbus A321neos and 90 Embraer E175 regional jets. The MAX isn't certified yet, and American said it built time into the order for Boeing to get that done. "Our first MAX 10 delivery is going to happen in 2028," American CFO Devon May told reporters. "It gives Boeing a lot of time to actually get the airplane certified and then deliver it on time."
