Avolon adds six 787-9s and five 737 MAX 9s to portfolio

Boeing and leasing company Avolon have finalized an order for six 787-9 Dreamliners and five additional 737 MAX 9s, valued at more than $2.1bn at list prices. Avolon announced a commitment to purchase the airplanes during the 2014 Farnborough Airshow in July. This marks Avolon’s first order for the super-efficient 787 Dreamliner and will increase the lessor’s 737 MAX portfolio to 20 airplanes.
