“We are honored EL AL has chosen Boeing airplanes to power its past, present and future as we continue to build on seven decades of partnership,” said Stephanie Pope, president and CEO of Boeing Commercial Airplanes.
EL AL’s 737 MAX order follows its purchase earlier this year of three additional 787-9 airplanes with options for six more as the airline further expands its Dreamliner fleet.
The carrier will take delivery of a new 787-9 this year and plans to receive two more new 787-9s on lease in the coming years.
Al currently has a fleet of 47 aircraft: 25 B737-NG, 6 B777-200s and 16 B787s.
