Deliveries will be made starting from 2020.

Singapore Airlines (SIA) finalised the purchase of 39 Boeing aircraft, composed of 20 777-9s and 19 787-10s, for $18.77b (US$13.80b).

According to a press release, the purchase agreement also has six options for each aircraft type, which if exercised, will enlarge the deal to as many as 51 aircraft.

The 777-9s are intended primarily for long-haul routes and are due for delivery from 2021.

The 787-10s are to be operated on medium-range routes and are due for delivery from 2020.

SIA is due to take delivery of the world’s first 787-10 in the first half of 2018, from a 2013 order with Boeing for 30 aircraft.
