Thai Lion Air (SL, Bangkok Don Mueang) will in February take delivery of two B737-800s and not two B737-900(ER)s as previously announced. According to Thai Aviation, the Lion Air (JT, Jakarta Soekarno-Hatta) subsidiary is still looking to acquire B737-900(ER)s with plans to operate eight of the type alongside the two B737-800s come year-end 2014. Thai Lion Air launched operations earlier this month with flights between Bangkok Don Mueang and Chiang Mai.
