Eva Air has signed a deal to purchase up to 24 Boeing 787 Dreamliners and two additional Boeing 777-300ERs.
The aircraft will be delivered over a five-year period from 2017, replacing older aircraft and allowing new routes and frequencies to be implemented with the Dreamliners implemented on medium and long-haul flights.
Eva Air president Cheng said: “We believe the future of the airline industry will be built on fuel efficiency and cabin comfort.
“The new Boeing 787-10 Dreamliner’s high fuel efficiency and long-range flying capabilities meets these requirements and our operational needs.
“These planes will support our growth well into the future.”
