KOREAN Air has finalised an order for 30
Boeing 737 MAXs and two additional B777-300ERs, which
the aircraft manufacturer values the order at US$4 billion at current list
prices.
The airline
also secured options on 20 more B737 MAXs as part of the deal, which was
earlier announced as a commitment during the Paris Air Show in June.
According to
Boeing, the carrier now has firm orders for 62 aircraft outstanding. Its
subsidiary Korean Air Cargo has outstanding orders for five more B777Fs and
four more B747-8Fs, reported Airlines and Destinations online.
In August
Korean Air took delivery of the first of 10 Boeing 747-8s it had ordered.
The Seoul-based
airline's Aerospace Division is a Boeing partner on both the B747-8 and B787
programmes, supplying the raked wing-tips for each model. It is also one of two
suppliers producing the new 737 MAX Advanced Technology Winglet.
Finalisation
of the Korean Air deal increases the firm orderbook for the B737 MAX to 2,929
aircraft, ordered by 60 customers.
