Qatar Airways is also the inaugural launch customer for the 777-8 Freighter and has 34 of the next generation cargo jet on order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Qatar Airways is proud to announce an expansion to the existing Boeing 777X aircraft order with an additional 20, totalling 94 Boeing 777X aircraft,&#8221; said Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive Officer, Engr. Badr Mohammed Al-Meer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/en\/2024\/07\/qatar-airways-posts-39-jump-in-annual-profit-to-record-1-67-billion.html\">Qatar Airways posts 39% jump in annual profit to record $1.67 billion<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Based on the popular Boeing 777 family and with advanced technologies from the 787 Dreamliner, the 777X program is designed to set new standards of efficiency, environmental performance and passenger experience. The 777-9 is the largest in the family and will help operators open new growth opportunities with capacity for 426 passengers in a typical two-class configuration and a range of 7,295 nautical miles (13,510 km).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlier this month, Boeing began certification flight testing for the 777-9, which will offer a new level of passenger comfort with a spacious cabin, better humidity, a quiet environment and increased natural light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Qatar Airways is a leader in our industry, and we are honored the airline added 20 more 777-9 jets to its large Boeing order book,&#8221; said Stephanie Pope, president and CEO of Boeing Commercial Airplanes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to the 777X family, Qatar Airways has 12 787 Dreamliner and 25 737 MAX aircraft on order.<\/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  uagb-post__image-position-top
