Korean Air 003490.KS in talks to purchase at least 10 Boeing jetliners
BA.N 777X, as part of a potential return to its traditional American supplier after placing a large order with its European rival Airbus
AIR.PA, two industry sources said.
The sources said discussions between Korean Air and Boeing on purchasing the 777X, an upgrade to the 777 mini-jumbo already used by South Korea’s largest carrier, were ongoing.
A third industry source with knowledge of the matter said Korean Air was in ongoing discussions with Boeing about potential orders, but had no immediate firm plans to buy new 777s.
Korean Air had no immediate comment. Boeing declined to comment and referred any fleet-related questions to the airline.
