EgyptAir to receive the first of its six 787 Boeing Dreamliners in March

EgyptAir is set to receive the first of its six previously ordered 787 Boeing Dreamliners in March, Boeing Middle East President Bernie Dunn told Youm7 during an interview at EDEX 2018. EgyptAir Chairman Ahmed Adel met with a delegation from Boeing International to expand the national flag carrier’s fleet last July. EgyptAir then went on to sign one of its biggest transactions to upgrade its fleet, together with the six 787 Dreamliners, according to Mubasher. President Abdel Fattah El Sisi also held talks with Boeing International President Marc Allen to further discuss fleet expansion for both EgyptAir and the Armed Forces, back in late September.
