Juneyao plans international boost with 787s


Juneyao Airlines will deploy its Boeing 787-9s internationally from February 2019 on a daily service to Singapore.

The carrier tells FlightGlobal that it expects to take delivery of two more 787s in December, which will bring its fleet to three of the type. Its first 787 was delivered in mid-October, ending its status as an all-Airbus operator.

The 324 seat 787s, the Star Alliance connecting partner’s first widebody, are targetted at helping the airline expand its network and go to long-haul. Following the deployment to Singapore next February, the type will be used to launch Juneyao’s first intercontinental route from Shanghai to Helsinki in June.
