Orders for Boeing

News

Boeing and Tokyo-based ANA (All Nippon Airways) have announced that the airline exercised options for two additional 767-300 Boeing Converted Freighters.

ANA launched the 767-300BCF passenger-to-freighter conversion program in October 2005 with an order for three conversions and four options. Now the airline holds a total of five firm orders and two options.

ANA plans to use the converted freighters as part of its joint venture cargo operation called ANA & JP Express, with partners Japan Post, Nippon Express, and Mitsui O.S.K Lines.

Boeing will induct ANA's first airplane in April 2007 and redeliver by December. The value of the agreement has not been disclosed.

Separately, Boeing and CIT Aerospace, a business unit of CIT Group, have announced the leasing company's order for five 787-8 Dreamliners.

Deliveries are scheduled to begin in 2012. The order was previously accounted for on Boeing's Orders and Deliveries web site and attributed to an unidentified customer.
