Boeing Delivers Air India's First 777-300ER

Part Of 2005 68-Plane Deal

This week, Boeing and Mumbai-based Air India celebrated the delivery of the airline's first 777-300ER (Extended Range) airplane.

This is the first 777-300ER from Air India's order of 68 Boeing jetliners placed in December 2005 -- which, as ANN reported, was the largest-ever civil aviation order in the country's history.

Air India's 777-300ER has a three-class configuration, including four first-class, 35 executive class and 303 economy seats. In July 2007, Boeing and Air India celebrated the delivery of the airline's first 777, a 777-200LR (Longer Range) Worldliner airplane.

To date, Air India has received 14 airplanes from its December 2005 order, including three 777-200LRs (Longer Range) and one 777-300ER, and 10 737-800s for Air India Express.

Boeing also committed to investing in a regional maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) base, and a pilot training facility in India.
