The latter had orders for Boeing&#8217;s 787 Dreamliner competitor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the announcement of the retirement of the A350s, LATAM will operate a Boeing-only long-haul fleet, with a variety of 767s, 777s and 787s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is unclear what will happen to the airline&#8217;s A350s, although it is possible that the company will seek to return them to lessors under bankruptcy agreements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-post-grid uagb-post-grid  uagb-post__image-position-top
