JAL Increases Boeing 787 Order to 45 Dreamliners

Japan Airlines (JAL) has increased their order of Boeing’s newest jet, the 787 Dreamliner, to 45 total aircraft in an announcement by the Japanese carrier this week.

JAL has added to its order 10 of the larger 787-9 airliners. They are also changing 10 of their initial 35 787-8s (smaller model) to the larger 787-9.

They have also agreed on an option to purchase 20 more 787s.

JAL plans to invest $6.3 billion dollars on upgrading its fleet over the next 5 years and will take delivery of its first Dreamliner sometime next month.
