Aerospace manufacturer Boeing confirmed that Air New Zealand has placed an additional order for the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, adding two more airplanes to its earlier two-airplane 787 order.
Air New Zealand is the second 787 customer to place a follow-on order for the popular new Boeing jetliner, having placed its initial order in June as part of a long-haul fleet announcement. The two new airplanes are valued at $260 million at list prices. Boeing now has 295 orders and commitments from 24 customers for the 787.
“The 787 Dreamliner clearly will be an important part of Air New Zealand's future,” said Rob Fyfe, CEO of Air New Zealand. “We look forward to its economic benefits and the opportunity to differentiate ourselves from competitors with a truly cutting edge product that passengers will appreciate.”
Air New Zealand’s new 787s will be powered by new Rolls Royce Trent 1000 engines. Air New Zealand will be the first South Pacific 787 operator of the jetliner.
