Boeing and Japan Air Lines have agreed on an order for 10 Boeing 787-9 aircraft and options for 10 additional aircraft, announced at Farnborough 2024. Japan Air Lines currently operates more than 50 787s on its global network. This comes on the heels of an order for 21 A350 aircraft earlier this year as JAL modernizes its fleet.
“We are delighted to announce the addition of 787 Dreamliners to our fleet. This order underscores our commitment to accelerating the introduction of the modern and more fuel-efficient aircraft to deliver unparalleled service to our customers and further reduce CO? emissions. We greatly appreciate the strong relationship and support from Boeing, which has been instrumental in our efforts to modernize our fleet and expand our international routes,” said Yukio Nakagawa, JAL Executive Officer of Procurement.
