Hope Boeing just keep taking steps towards making things better and rebuilding their reputation

[@kojoharrison630]

They will.

[@portcybertryx222]

They should take things slow. Not rush like the last time. Better to be late than to release a defective product yet again

[@codyslade5558]

The 777-9X is in the certification process as we speak. Good for Korean air. The 777-9X and the 787-10 are awesome airplanes. I look forward to seeing Korean Air livery on these new jets.

[@RIdersfan232]

Excited to see the 777x up in the air hopefully in the near future 🙏

[@Sacto1654]

The 787-10 will be used on Korean Air's routes throughout eastern Asia, probably as far as Seoul to Sydney. The 777-9's will be used to eventually replace the A380.

[@dmcr9525]

And replace the 747-8. They have already signed an agreement to sell 5 -8's to the USAF.

[@Jermigggricoooo]

@@Sacto1654 and 747-8 too

[@GrimYak]

not all, korean Air also has 39 orders for A321 and 27 A350-1000. Korean air is a mixed plane airline.

[@Jermigggricoooo]

@@GrimYak They have order A350-900 also

[@aquaden8344]

A Boeing order was to expect after a large Airbus order. Especially the 27 A350-1000 made me wonder how long it will take until we hear about a 777X order - order has to be restored! I still think the much heavier 777X will have an disadvantage compared to the composite A350. Time will show. By the time the 777-9s are delivered Airbus should have the second stretched A350 ready (hopefully R&R finally pushes the UltraFan). Regarding the larger seat count in the 777-9 it's important to sell the additional seat! A 777-9 flight operated at 90% load factor transforms into an A350 flight with 100% load factor, what is turning into a competitive edge for the A350.

[@yodingdongyo]

Both the 787-10 and the 777-X might be the play of the next decade for Boeing.

[@Ayden2008]

I can definitely see that

[@patrickpeters2903]

The B787-10 has the worst range of all B787. And not competitive at all against the A350-900. It's just political....

[@theplanespotter2849]

@@patrickpeters2903would argue that the 787 competes with the A330 family instead of the A350 which competes with the 777s. The 787-10 might not be great for range but surely has good capacity and it’s great for high capacity mid range routes, United uses them loads for that sort of route. The A350 will sure have a large competitor with the 777x on the horizon now.

[@theplanespotter2849]

100% and we sure hope it does. Superior aircraft to their French counterparts.

[@georgeclarke163]

How are they superior? Certainly not based on previous quality issues. Obviously sold at a give-away price.

[@raksonijumet2603]

It's great to hear positive news about Boeing. I hope they reform their culture and do well in the future.

[@samaanalkhaldi2364]

When the 777x get certified, every major airline will begging to get one ❤

[@kojoharrison630]

It is interesting to note that Customers have NOT cancelled their orders whatsoever despite all the delays!! What has made it all safe for Boeing is the economic downturn after the lockdown which has seen Global industries lost a lot of revenue and are now trying hard to make up for lost finances……therefore no Airline has been in a position to buy Brand New Aircrafts with money they Don’t have. Good for Boeing. Airlines are also loyal to their preferred manufacturer

[@edwardwilcox6606]

Wishful thinking I imagine. I hope it does well but it has hurdles to get through. Certification isn`t a given, then there`s EIS which has the potential to bring up issues, then there`s the huge cost of this airliner which could limit it`s attractivness to many airlines, certainly US ones particularly when they don`t need such a large aircraft. Boeing though need a break, perhaps the B777X is the plane to kickstart their better fortune.

[@sleepyg2011]

Affirmative!

[@hanj31]

@@kojoharrison630 most people that ordered the 777x operate the 747-8 and/ or A380 so they're not gonna cancel

[@Turboy65]

Boeing has so much to live up to. But they have so much to fix along the way.

[@nickolliver3021]

I dont see much as next year will be 777x and 737-7 and 10 certification

[@johnhaan986]

Very good news. But to me, “massive” is 150-300 units. Not quite massive, but a nice order Boeing needs and deserves!

[@mindblown9]

Massive imo is 100+

[@prasenjittripura3]

its massive bcz b777x is huge plane, order of 20 units is huge for any airline

[@Blank00]

@@johnhaan986 when it comes to widebodies, an order of over than 100 planes would be extremely rare. KAL’s order for the A350 isn’t massive either

[@Blank00]

I bet the next airline to order the 777x is Air New Zealand

[@bobcruickshank4489]

Maybe United or KLM

[@adamtonkin3800]

No, 787 is replacing the 777 in ANZ fleet.

[@aquaden8344]

Only if New Zealand is able to fill a 777X, what is unlikely.

[@aquaden8344]

@@bobcruickshank4489 KLM doesn't need the 777X, they have a superior solution already, the A350-1000. Best of all the A350-1000 will be in operation long before the 777-9 is available.

[@michaelosgood9876]

Yes! I like that idea. Being an ultra long haul carrier for the best part, 777-8x WILL undoubtedly give them the range required-- ie Auckland- New York, Chicago etc. Air NZ loves their 777s and if they order soon, they'll arrive right when they'll need 'em. Around 2030 onwards...

[@ramarakeshv]

Good dstart. Congratulations 777x

[@I_am_BlinkStar]

What an order!

[@thaph2832]

First sky team member to order the Boeing 777x !

[@Blank00]

Korean also revealed a new cabin debuting on the 787-10 and 777-300ER as a retrofit. Will they also retrofit new planes with the old cabin, like the 787-9, 737 MAX and -900ER, and A220?

[@stanwill]

Glad to see that Boeing is still competing for orders and occasionally wins an order here and there. It is unfortunate that every little issue that happens to a Boeing plane, it is blown up in the media. These are machines. They break down and they fail, but at the same time, these devices fly millions of passengers around the world with very few issues. Congrats to Boeing.

[@dmcr9525]

Occasionally yes, but they definitely seem to be OWNING these airshows. 😮

[@GrimYak]

THey break down and fail yes, but boeing has been failing more than others.

[@Blank00]

@@GrimYak a lot of these incidents like the wheel incidents and the recent Southwest incidents are caused by maintainence or crew error. The United 777 wheel loss for example involves a plane that has gone through D Check several times. A Southwest flight nosedived near Hawaii because according to findings, the first officer inadvertently pushed the control column.

[@jakeoht791]

@@GrimYakI wouldn’t say Boeing has been failing a lot, and it’s not that much more than others. Just the news keeps pulling Boeing in on news reports because they know it’s a buzz word and that it’ll get views.

[@AndrewLarson-mq7xc]

Boeing sells airplanes and the media sells stories.the juicer the better for them. Boeing is slowly coming back it will be a while. 😊

[@Tpr_1808]

Once this gets certified I hope there's no quality control stuff. It'll be a good replacement for the 747-8 and a380s

[@hungo7720]

Though Boeing should be condemned and lambasted for recent defects, the 777x is itself a great aircraft which can become the backbone of carriers. Its extensive range and exceptional capabilities really make it favored with a lot of major carriers.

[@davidcarter4247]

Korean clearly does not think the 777X is about to be cancelled.

[@OMGz1122]

There were so many orders that I ordered one too

[@lloydmixsr.9764]

Im glad for Boeing, I hope they're doing all they can to ensure the quality of their Jetliners.

[@stomper2888]

I hope they don't outsource janitorial if we go on strike in September

[@hanj31]

This shouldn't come as a surprise considering they operate the A380 and the 747-8 on long haul routes even double daily for LAX and JFK.Lets not forget Asiana does double daily with A380 on LAX as well. They need replacements for those aircraft that will be retired.

[@jonathanhernandez4304]

Proceed with caution. Social Media is powerful these days. I have confidence in Boeing to make high quality aircraft and maintain strict quality adherence during production. Unfortunately one or two more high profile manufacturing issues will be very painful to Boeing. Whether deserved or not, their quality issues have caused hyper focus on their abilities and that's a tough spot to be in.

[@nickolliver3021]

they will do their best to make sure its right

[@gottfriedheumesser1994]
