International Airlines Group (IAG) has reached agreement with Boeing for new long-haul aircraft to replace the older Boeing 747s in the British Airways fleet between 2017 and 2021.

IAG plans to convert 18 existing Boeing 787s options into firm orders for British Airways. The aircraft will be powered by Rolls-Royce Trent 1000 engines and a comprehensive maintenance package is included in the engine deal.

Willie Walsh, IAG chief executive, said: “British Airways has 24 787s on order already and we plan to boost this by a further 18 aircraft by exercising our options.
