Southwest Airlines removed the Boeing 737 MAX 7 from its 2024 outlook due to certification delays and supply chain issues.
Despite a Q4 net loss of over $200 million, Southwest's full-year net income amounts to nearly $500 million.
The Federal Aviation Administration has no timeline for certifying the MAX 7 and MAX 10.
