Korean Air confirms 103-unit Boeing aircraft order

Korean Air (KE, Seoul Incheon) has approved a long-term investment plan covering the acquisition of a total of 103 aircraft, comprising twenty B777-9s, twenty-five B787-10s, fifty B737-10s, and eight B777-8F freighters, according to a stock exchange filing dated March 26, 2026.

Korean Air (KE, Seoul Incheon) has approved a long-term investment plan covering the acquisition of a total of 103 aircraft, comprising twenty B777-9s, twenty-five B787-10s, fifty B737-10s, and eight B777-8F freighters, according to a stock exchange filing dated March 26, 2026.

The board authorised the purchase as part of its fleet plan through 2039, with deliveries extending beyond the airline's previously stated 2030 timeline.

The carrier also approved a separate investment for 21 spare engines, sourced from General Electric and CFM International. The package includes six GE9X, five GEnx-1B, and ten LEAP-1B engines, with deliveries scheduled through April 2039.

Korean Air stated the investments are intended to "secure aircraft in advance" under its long-term fleet strategy.

The disclosure follows an earlier August 2025 announcement outlining the same Boeing order. At the time, Korean Air said the deal would include its first commitment to B777-8F freighters and expand existing orders for B777-9s, B787-10s, and B737-10s.

According to ch-aviation data, Korean Air operates a fleet comprising ten A220-300s, nineteen A321-200NX, seventeen A330-300s, three A350-900s, five A380-800s, six B737-8s, two B737-800s, nine B737-900s, six B737-900ERs, four B747-8s, three B777-200ERs, four B777-300s, twenty-five B777-300ERs, fourteen B787-9s, fifteen B787-10s, as well as a cargo fleet composed of four B747-400ERFs, seven B747-8Fs, and twelve B777-200Fs.

Indonesia orders 12 PC-24s for air force training, transport

The Indonesian Air Force (TNI-AU Tentara Nasional Indonesia-Angkatan Udara) will take delivery of 12 factory-new Pilatus PC-24s for pilot training, air transport, and liaison missions, with options for additional units.

The Indonesian Air Force (TNI-AU Tentara Nasional Indonesia-Angkatan Udara) will take delivery of 12 factory-new Pilatus PC-24s for pilot training, air transport, and liaison missions, with options for additional units.

The order for the twelve jets was placed with Pilatus Aircraft by PT E-System Solutions Indonesia, the Ministry of Defence's authorised contractor. The deal includes ground support equipment, tools, spare parts, training, and technical support.

The air force's executive jet fleet currently comprises two Falcon 8X trijets used for VIP transport, along with a Premier I for utility missions and transport of senior Army officials. In addition, the service operates four B737-200s, three B737-400s, a B737-500, two B737-800s, and a B737-800(BBJ).

The letter of intent (LOI) with Pilatus also covers the acquisition of twenty-four PC-21 turboprop trainers, within a broader package that includes ground-based training and support equipment, spare parts, and technical support.

“The selection by the Indonesian Air Force emphasises the growing interest of government operators in our PC-24 super versatile jet. We remain focused on supplying solutions to facilitate various missions ranging from training to transport,” said Ioannis Papachristofilou, vice president of government aviation at Pilatus Aircraft.

Indonesia joins other air forces operating the PC-24, including the Botswana Defence Force and Qatar Emiri Air Force, each with a single aircraft. In France, the navy (Aéronavale) took delivery in March of two of three PC-24s ordered in mid-2025.
