Speaking to IRNA on Sunday, the informed source said that the two 777 Boeing passenger planes will be delivered to the national flag carrier Iran Air.

The source noted that the Turkish Airlines was supposed to purchase the two 777 planes, but it refrained from doing so.

The Boeing 777 passenger plane is a two-engine wide-body aircraft and is suitable for long-distance journey of over 17,000 kilometers.

“Since 30 out of 80 passenger planes purchased from Boeing are 777 model, the giant aviation company has announced that it will deliver two of the same model to Iran,” the source added.

He noted that 15 of the 777 model will be 350-seated and the remaining 15 will be 390-seated aircraft.
