American 787s slip but Jetstar's first will arrive two years early

摘要

Delivery of American Airlines' Boeing 787s have slipped further - the first aircraft is now due to arrive in 2014. However, Qan-tas's Jetstar division will receive its initial Dreamliners in 2012, two years earlier than scheduled.rnAmerican says the latest delivery slip was "due to the impact of the overall Boeing 787 programme delay on American's delivery positions". The first of the airline's 42 787-9s were originally due in 2012, but this slipped last year to the second half of 2013 as aresult of programme delays and Boeing's 2008 machinists' strike.
