Boeing to Deliver 737 MAX 8 Jets to Air Senegal Amidst Regional Expansion Plans
Boeing has reached an agreement with Air Senegal to purchase nine 737 MAX 8 jets, marking the largest aeronautical contract in Senegal’s history. The deal includes an option for six additional aircraft, which Air Senegal plans to use to expand its network in Europe and launch new routes to the Middle East and Americas. The 737 MAX will enable Air Senegal to serve secondary European cities, reducing travel times for passengers. The signing ceremony took place at the Dubai Airshow on November 17, 2025, in the presence of Senegal’s Minister of Land and Air Transport, Yankoba Diémé, and Brad McMullen, Boeing’s Senior Vice President of Commercial Sales and Marketing.
