Majorca-based airline Air Europa has announced that it had made a huge order for 14 Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners valued at €3.0 billion at list prices.
The order - in the largest ever Boeing widebody order from a Spanish carrier - was booked in December and has already been tallied in Boeing’s orders, Air Europa said in a statement.
“The first Dreamliners will start to arrive in 2016, this will allow us to grow both the number of flights and destinations we will operate to by around 50 percent,” Juan José Hidalgo, the president of Air Europa parent company Globalia, said in the statement.
Air Europa’s fleet of 45 planes also includes Airbus and Embraer jets, but the airline now has a combined total of 22 Boeing 787-8s and Boeing 787-9s on order.
