Customers Have Placed 529 Gross Orders For The 737 MAX Family, So Far, In 2021
Griffin Global Asset Management is expanding its commercial aircraft portfolio with five new 737-8 jets. The purchase is Griffin’s first direct order with Boeing, 'as it sees strategic opportunities to place the airplanes during the market recovery.'
“As market conditions rebound, we are finding opportunities to serve our airline customers in innovative ways. An important component of this strategy is providing balanced capacity that meets returning passenger demand. The 737-8 is well-positioned to support this objective, and this order lays a strong foundation for more to come with Boeing and Griffin on future opportunities,” said Ryan McKenna, founder and CEO of Griffin.
Designed and built in Renton, Washington, the 737 MAX family delivers efficiency, flexibility and reliability while reportedly reducing fuel use and carbon emissions by at least 14% compared to the airplanes they replace. The 737-8 seats up to 189 passengers and can fly 3,550 nautical miles – about 600 miles farther than its predecessor. Every 737 MAX features the new Boeing Sky Interior, highlighted by sculpted sidewalls and window reveals, LED lighting, and larger pivoting overhead storage bins.
"Griffin Global Asset Management is building a first-class aircraft leasing business, and we are delighted that they have selected the 737-8 for their single-aisle portfolio. As Griffin places its first direct order with Boeing, we welcome them to the 737 family and look forward to working with the team in the future," said Ihssane Mounir, Boeing senior vice president of Commercial Sales and Marketing.
