AerCap Holdings NV has delivered its tenth Boeing 787 aircraft on lease to Grupo Aeroméxico, marking AerCap’s 100th Boeing 787 delivery from its direct orderbook with Boeing and representing Aeroméxico’s 25th Dreamliner. The delivery has taken place at a ceremony attended by representatives from all three companies. AerCap serves as the world’s largest owner of Boeing 787 aircraft and maintains the largest 787 order book of any lessor, with approximately 140 aircraft owned and on order. The Boeing 787-9 aircraft will support Aeroméxico’s continued growth while further enhancing the efficiency and sustainability of its fleet.
The 787 remains one of the most attractive widebody aircraft in service today, combining excellent operating economics with outstanding performance and passenger comfort. Aeroméxico’s fleet strategy has received a significant boost with this delivery, reflecting the airline’s continued commitment to strengthening its position as a modern, efficient and world-class carrier. The Dreamliner has been instrumental in expanding Aeroméxico’s long-haul network, while delivering the reliability, efficiency and onboard experience customers expect. AerCap has now delivered more 787 Dreamliners to AerCap than any other customer, with the company having been the first lessor to take delivery of the 787 in 2013.
The milestone delivery comes 13 years after AerCap first received the 787 aircraft type. AerCap serves approximately 300 customers around the world with comprehensive fleet solutions and is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker AER. The company maintains its headquarters in Dublin with offices in Miami, Shannon, Memphis, Singapore, London, Dubai, Shanghai, Amsterdam and other locations around the world. Aeroméxico’s current operating fleet includes Boeing 787 and 737 aircraft, as well as Embraer 190, and the airline serves as a founding member of SkyTeam, offering connectivity across more than 145 countries through its 18 partner airlines.
