“We are re-building our country’s aviation sector and the purchase of the Boeing 777-200LR will help us begin developing the long-haul market,” said Al Ameri. “This airplane has the proven capability of connecting virtually any two cities in the world non-stop in addition to carrying a full cargo payload. With its unparalleled efficiencies, the 777-200LR will be a strategic addition to the fleet.”
The Republic of Iraq also has 30 Next-Generation 737-800s on order, the first of which will be delivered mid-2013, as well as 10 787 Dreamliners.
