重點整理:
1. IAG 訂購 18 架 777-9 加上 24 架選擇權給英航. 預計 2020 開始交機
2. 這批訂單用來汰換 BA 34 架年老的 747-400.
看來 BA 預計用 18 架 A35K (2019 開始交機) 和這批 777-9 取代 747-400
選擇權的部分應該有考慮到替換 12 架 A380
3. 去年已訂購 3 架 777-300ER 汰換僅剩 3 架的 777-200 (Non-ER)
4. BA 現有 46 架 200 + 12 架 300ER.
目前還沒有汰換 777-200 的計畫, 2000 年之前的 777 有 27 架.

Boeing Signs Deal for Up to 42 777X Airplanes with International Airlines Group
IAG's British Airways picks the 777X to modernize a major part of its
long-haul fleet 777X builds on 777 and 787 Dreamliner technology;
will be world's largest, most efficient twin-aisle jet.
Boeing and International Airlines Group, the parent company of British Airways,
announced the airline has committed to purchasing up to 42 777X airplanes,
including 18 orders and 24 options. The airline joins a group of leading
carriers that have selected the new 777-9, which will debut next month as the
largest and most efficient twin-engine passenger jet in the world.
The commitment, valued at up to $18.6 billion at list prices, will be reflected
on Boeing's Orders and Deliveries website once it is finalized.
"The new 777-9 is the world's most fuel efficient longhaul aircraft and will
bring many benefits to British Airways' fleet. It's the ideal replacement for
the 747 and its size and range will be an excellent fit for the airline's
existing network," said Willie Walsh, IAG chief executive. "This aircraft
will provide further cost efficiencies and environmental benefits with fuel
cost per seat improvements of 30 per cent compared to the 747. It also provides
an enhanced passenger experience." British Airways has been modernizing its
fleet – one of the largest in the airline industry – to more efficiently
serve its extensive global route network. In recent years, the airline has
introduced the super-efficient 787 Dreamliner family to replace its medium-
sized widebody jets. The new 777-9 will replace British Airways' larger
widebody airplanes, mainly the four-engine 747 jumbo jet. In ordering the
777-9, British Airways extends a long-running relationship with the popular 777
family. The airline is one of the largest 777 operators with a fleet of nearly
60 of the long-range jet. The airline last year committed to four more
777-300ER (Extended Range) jets via operating lease.
The 777-9 is larger and has a slightly wider cabin than current 777s, which
provides the ability to comfortably sit 400-425 passengers in a standard
two-class cabin. Powered by 787 Dreamliner technologies, an all-new composite
wing, and other enhancements, the 777-9 offers airlines 12 percent lower fuel
consumption than competing airplanes. The 777-9 can also fly farther than its
predecessors with a standard range of 7,600 nautical miles (14,075 kilometers).
The 777X will also debut a redesigned cabin that incorporates popular 787
features and new technologies. Recently unveiled online, the 777X interior
offers larger windows, a wider cabin, new lighting, while providing passengers
with a smoother ride, better cabin altitude, humidity, and sound quality.
"British Airways is one of the most iconic international carriers, now in its
100th year of connecting the world with its impressive route network. We are
honored that British Airways has selected the 777X as part of its fleet for its next century. Together with the 787 Dreamliner, we are excited for the 777X to help British Airways build on its incredible legacy," said Kevin McAllister, president & CEO of Boeing Commercial Airplanes. "The 777-9, in particular, simply has no competitor in its class when it comes to efficiency and performance. It is the right-sized airplane for British Airways to efficiently serve long-range routes with heavy passenger
demand."
The selection by IAG and British Airways puts the 777X at 358 orders and
commitments from eight customers. Production of the 777X began in 2017, with
first flight planned for this year and first delivery expected in 2020.
