SINGAPORE, 25 March 2024: Korean Air will sign a contract with Airbus to procure 33 A350 family aircraft, comprising 27 A350-1000s and six A350-900s, valued at USD13.7 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The order will supplement the airline\u2019s long-term fleet operations as it gradually retires its older aircraft. Procuring the next-generation, eco-friendly A350 is not only aligned with the airline\u2019s sustainability efforts but also seen as preparation for the integration of Asiana Airlines.<\/p>\n\n\n

The A350-1000 is the largest in the A350 family and can accommodate 350 to 410 passengers in a standard three-class configuration. The aircraft uses advanced composite materials, reducing fuel consumption and carbon emissions by up to 25% compared to similarly sized previous-generation aircraft models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the longest flight range among existing passenger aircraft, the A350-1000 can operate up to 16,000km with full payload.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The A350-900 has a range of 15,370km and typically seats 300 to 350 passengers in a three-class layout. The airline can deploy the aircraft on its long-haul routes, such as Seoul Incheon-New York, where it currently operates two daily flights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to the agreement to purchase 33 A350s, Korean Air plans to introduce 50 Airbus A321neos, 10 Boeing 787-9s, 20 Boeing 787-10s, and 30 Boeing 737-8s. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
