Qantas has cancelled an order for 35 Boeing 787-9 aircraft to reduce capital expenditure.
Deliveries of 15 787-8s to Jetstar, its low-cost subsidiary, will continue as planned, adds Australia's flag carrier.
The 787-8s will allow the transfer of Airbus A330s from Jetstar to Qantas Domestic, and the eventual retirement of Qantas's Boeing 767 fleet.
The group will retain and bring forward 50 787-9 options and purchase rights by two years, with the aircraft available for delivery from 2016 if needed.
http://www.flightglobal.com/news/articl ... ft-377169/The deal with GECAS includes 75 firm orders for the 737 Max 8 and 10 orders for the next-generation Boeing 737-800. The agreement allows for up to 15 737-800 options. The order, previously announced at the Farnborough air show in July, raises this week's order total for the 737 Max to 135 aircraft when including Gol's order for 60 of the narrowbody jets.
Brazilian low-cost carrier Gol has placed an order for 60 Boeing 737 Max 8 aircraft, to be delivered from 2018.
