A Boeing 737 MAX jet, originally bound for China's Xiamen Airlines, flew back to Seattle after becoming victim of steep US-China tariffs, Reuters reported Sunday.
The aircraft, painted in Xiamen's livery, refueled in Guam and Hawaii before returning to its US production hub on Sunday, according to the report.
With US tariffs on Chinese goods now at 145% and China retaliating with 125% duties, the $55 million jet's delivery could have been financially crippling, Reuters wrote.
The move signals growing disruption in aerospace trade, once duty-free, as airlines may defer orders to avoid tariffs, according to the report.
