Malaysia Aviation Group (MAG), the parent company of Malaysia Airlines, is in talks with Boeing (NYSE:BA) to acquire 737 MAX jets that may become available if Chinese airlines cancel or delay their orders,

Two Boeing aircraft scheduled to be delivered to Chinese airlines were returned to the US from China amid worsening trade tensions between the two countries.
