Iranair and Boeing reach airplane purchase agreement

An agreement has been signed after Boeing company representatives paid several official visits to Iran and held effective talks with Iranair officials. If approved by both governments, Boeing will sell Iranair 100 aircraft mainly from the new-generation Boeing 737 family, as well as 300ER & 900 aircraft from the 777 family, in a deal worth US$25bn at book price. “Boeing will continue to follow the lead of the US government with regards to working with Iran’s airlines, and any and all contracts with Iran’s airlines will be contingent upon US government approval,” Boeing said in a statement.
