Jin Air to get first of three B777s in December

Jin Air CEO Ma Won has unveiled his carrier's ambitious longterm growth strategy which will see it almost double its current fleet from 11 aircraft to 20 by the end of 2015.

Speaking during a press conference at the Lotte Hotel in Seoul on Friday last week, Ma said the aircraft will include six B737-800s as well as three B777-200(ER)s to be used in launching the Korean Air subsidiary's first long-haul flights to Europe and the United States.

 The first of the widebodies is expected in December with the other two due next year.

Ma said market saturation both at home and regionally had forced his airline to move into the international sector. As a result, Jin Air will add four new routes next year to China, Japan and Malaysia.

Rival Air Busan) is also said to be considering taking an initial two or three A330s for use in serving Australia, Hawaii, Turkey
