What Happened
Legacy Carrier Introduced Iconic Widebody Decades Ago
United Airlines was the first to introduce the Boeing 777, with its initial order in 1995. The aircraft’s development was a collaborative effort between Boeing and eight major airlines, including United. The 777 has since become a popular choice for long-haul flights, with over 60 companies worldwide operating the type. The 777X program, however, has experienced delays, with Lufthansa expected to be the first customer to receive the aircraft. This development was first reported by Simple Flying.
