SEATTLE -- At about $8 billion the American Airlines order for 42 Boeing 787s is Boeing's biggest order of the year in dollar value.
At the Farnborough air show in England in July Air China ordered 45 aircraft worth $6.3 billion and FlyDubai ordered 50 Boeing 737s listed at $3.7 billion.
The American Airlines order indicates that the 40-day Boeing Machinists union strike has not stopped airlines from making long-term fleet decisions.
