Turkish Airlines has ordered 15 Boeing Co. 737s in a deal worth roughly $1.2 billion at list prices, the companies said Friday.
The Istanbul-based carrier ordered 10 737-800s and five 737-900 Extended Range jets.
“These new Boeing 737 aircraft will help us to reach even more cities and build a truly global network,” said Dr. Temel Kotil, CEO of Turkish Airlines.
Boeing will deliver all of Turkish Airlines new Next-Generation 737s with the innovative Boeing Sky Interior. The new interior introduces larger overhead stowage bins with a new pivoting design that provides more open space in the cabin.
“Today’s 737 order is another important step in our partnership with Turkish Airlines,” said Marlin Dailey, vice president of sales and marketing for Boeing’s commercial airplanes division.
