Sriwijaya Air has taken delivery of two new Next-Generation 737-900ER (Extended Range) airplanes. This is the first all-new airplane delivery for Sriwijaya Air, Indonesia's third largest carrier. 

"Today is a very important day for Sriwijaya Air, with the delivery of our first all-new airplanes," said Chandra Lie, president of Sriwijaya Air. "These new 737-900ERs allow us to remain a leader in the market with superior economics and the ability to provide our customers with a world-class cabin experience."

The Jakarta-based airline operates an all-Boeing fleet of 737 airplanes and offers flights to various Indonesian destinations and a select few international cities.

"We are proud to build upon our decade-long partnership with Sriwijaya Air with this double delivery of their first all-new airplanes," said Dinesh Keskar, Senior Vice President, Asia Pacific and India Sales, Boeing Commercial Airplanes. "With market-leading fuel efficiency and reliability, and the passenger-pleasing Boeing Sky Interior, these new 737-900ERs strengthen Sriwijaya Air's current fleet of 737s, with additional range, capability and comfort."
