Boeing and spicejet Announce Largest Order in Carrier's History

Boeing and SpiceJet recently announced an order for 205 new airplanes, including 100 more 73 MAX 8s. This is the largest order in the history of SpiceJet. The contract also includes the low-cost carrier’s current order of 42 MAXs, 13 new 737 MAXs and the purchase rights of 50 additional airplanes.

Ajay Singh, chairman and managing director of SpiceJet said the company is anticipating the order will increase its competitive advantage. "The Boeing 737 class of aircraft has been the backbone of our fleet since SpiceJet began, with its high reliability, low operation economies and comfort," Singh said.


Ray Conner, vice chairman of The Boeing Company, agreed that the partnership would help SpiceJet to increase its reach in the airline industry. "The economics of the 737 MAXs will allow SpiceJet to profitably open new markets, expand connectively within India and beyond, and offer their customers a superior passenger experience,” Conner said.
