Boeing Co. won orders for 39 wide-body aircraft from Singapore Airlines Ltd. as Southeast Asia's biggest long-distance carrier upgrades its fleet over the next decade with more fuel-efficient models in an effort to cut costs.
The airline agreed to buy 20 777-9s, which are set to debut at the decade's end, and 19 787-10s, the longest Dreamliner model, for $13.8 billion at list prices that don't reflect customary discounts, Singapore Air said in a statement on Thursday. Boeing was nearing an order for at least 35 wide-body aircraft from Singapore Air, Bloomberg News reported Wednesday.
Deliveries of the jets will start as early as in the financial year ending March 2021, the carrier said, adding it also has options to buy six more of each of the two models.
