Agreement Brings Total 737-800BCF Orders And Commitments To More Than 150

BBAM is expanding its 737-800 Boeing Converted Freighter fleet with six firm orders and six options. The agreement brings BBAM’s 737-800BCF orders and commitments to 15 and highlights,  'the continued strength of the e-commerce and express cargo market.'

“As we look ahead to expanding our cargo fleet, the 737-800 Boeing Converted Freighter provides the performance and efficiency our customers need,” said Steve Zissis, CEO of BBAM. “Adding these highly capable freighters to 276 Boeing airplanes in our managed fleet helps to further strengthen our leadership position in the marketplace.”

Based on the Next-Generation 737, the 737-800BCF is meeting customer demand for a newer-generation freighter that offers reliability and lower fuel consumption and operating costs per trip compared to other standard body freighters. Primarily used to carry express cargo on domestic or short-haul routes, the airplane is capable of carrying up to 52,800 pounds and flying up to 2,025 nautical miles. Since entering service in 2018, the 737-800BCF has won more than 150 orders and commitments.
