Boeing Delivers Scoot's First Dreamliner

Airliner Key To Carrier's Fleet Expansion Plans

The first Dreamliner for Singapore-based Scoot Airline has been delivered by Boeing. The airplane will play a key role in the low-cost carrier's strategic plan to expand its long-haul fleet.

"The Dreamliner represents a step-change for Scoot, allowing us to take our onboard customer experience to a new level and to greatly expand our network," said Scoot chief executive officer Campbell Wilson. "The 787's significant advances in efficiency will enable Scoot to continue offering safe and reliable service, with increased comfort and even greater value airfares."

In addition to bringing big-jet ranges to midsize airplanes, Scoot says the 787 will provide the airline with unrivaled fuel efficiency and environmental performance, using 20 percent less fuel and with 20 percent fewer emissions than the airplanes it replaces.

The airline will take delivery of an additional 19 787 Dreamliners. The airplanes were originally ordered by parent company Singapore Airlines, which included ten 787-9 and ten 787-8s.
