Boeing says it will be several weeks before it fully resumes building passenger planes, as factory workers return following a strike that lasted nearly two months.

Boeing received its first order after reaching a deal with striking machinists, but it still faces a difficult road ahead.

Boeing Co. delivered 14 jetliners in October, its lowest monthly total since November 2020, as a strike by the company’s largest union hamstrung its operations.

As Boeing's Machinists return after eight weeks on strike, experts predict the work stoppage strained finances for the company and region, but likely ended before the cost got prohibitive.

Tuesday is the deadline for all Boeing machinists to report back to work after their nearly two-month-long strike ended last week.
