Emirates Boeing 787

Emirates Airline (EK) is considering converting its order for 35 Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft to Boeing 777X jets as it reviews its future fleet requirements amid continued delays to the 787 programme.

Emirates delays its Boeing 787 plans as Flydubai advances with its own 787-9 order, reshaping fleet strategy across Dubai.

Emirates is considering the 787 family as a potential option due to the increased take-off weight of the 787-10 and a range of up to 6,400 nm.
