Boeing verso l’accordo con i sindacati

✈ Boeing and its unions may reach a resolution tomorrow as over 30,000 workers vote on a proposed agreement featuring a 35% wage increase, bonuses, incentives, and enhanced pension contributions. The ongoing strike, lasting one and a half months, has cost Boeing approximately $2 billion, with the company facing $45 billion in debt. Despite the situation, Boeing plans to lay off 17,000 employees (10% of its workforce). Airbus also struggles, aiming to fulfill over 8,500 orders amid supply chain issues. Analysts reduced 2024 aircraft delivery estimates from 1,525 to just below 1,100, impacted by strikes and engine issues with Pratt & Whitney Gtf that require 300 days of downtime, potentially leading to higher ticket prices due to an aircraft shortage amidst rising demand.
