Norwegian takes delivery of first Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner

Boeing, MG Aviation and Norwegian celebrated the delivery of the Scandinavian low-cost carrier’s first Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner. Norwegian leased the airplane through an agreement with MG Aviation, part of Jordache Enterprises, the Nakash family’s global conglomerate that also operates Arkia Israeli Airlines. The delivery is the first Dreamliner to MG Aviation, which has three additional 787s on order. Norwegian already operates eight 787-8s and will use its 787-9s to open up new routes across North America, South America and Southeast Asia with its increased range and capacity.
