Air India had placed an order for 68 Boeing Jet airliners back in December 2005. It was the largets commercial airplane order in India’s civil aviation history. India is currently going through an aviation boom, both domestically and internationally.
Air India will use this 777-200LR to become the first India-based operator to offer direct, nonstop flights between the United States and India. It begins service to New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport from Mumbai, India, on Aug. 1.
