Orders for the 787-9 version include options for eight more, as well as conversion rights to the higher-capacity 787-10 model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The airline cited the 787&#8217;s cargo-carrying capability as one of the reasons behind its selection in a contest that, according to industry sources, pitted the 787 against the A330neo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Deliveries of the 787 are expected to begin in 2025, China Airlines said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"related-topics\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-post-grid uagb-post-grid
