Boeing has confirmed Lufthansa (LH) as the launch customer for the next generation of its 777-9 wide-body aircraft.
As reported by CFO Brian West, the company ended speculation
over whether Emirates (EK) or LH
would be the first to receive the new aircraft by confirming LH during its Q4 2024 earnings call.
Lufthansa is now slated to receive its first Boeing 777-9 in 2026,
becoming the launch customer of the newest variant in the 777X family. Still, the program continues to face certification problems.
