Emirates Airlines (EK) has significantly bolstered its cargo capabilities by placing a firm order for five additional Boeing 777 freighters.
Emirates Airlines (EK) is under negotiations with both Airbus and Boeing for a significant new freighter order, evaluating the A350 and 777X cargo variants to expand its freight fleet from 11 to 35 aircraft by 2030.
UAE flag carrier Emirates Airlines (EK) plans a “serious conversation” with Boeing following another delay in the 777X aircraft delivery.
