ANA converts 15 787-8s to -9s
By Jon Ostrower

Boeing 787 launch operator All Nippon Airways (ANA) will convert 15 of its 55 787-8s order to larger -9 aircraft, joining a growing list of customers to make the switch.
The -9s will "meet the increasing need for 400 seat-capacity aircraft for domestic routes, and will further improve the flexibility of our fleet and network planning", says ANA, which has said it plans to have domestic and long-haul configurations for its 787-8s,These 400-seat 787-9s will complement, and likely replace, the 418-seat 777-200s that ANA operates today on short-haul routes.In January, ANA converted 28 787-3s, intended for short-haul high-cycle high-capacity domestic operations, to 787-8s. The move erased the remaining backlog for the model, virtually eliminating any chance the variant will ever be built.ANA joins a growing list of 787 customers converting to the stretch 787-9, which is designed to seat 280 passengers in a three-class configuration. The 787-9 is 6.1m longer than the -8 and has a design range of 15,000km (8,135nm).Air China recently converted 15 of its 787-8s to -9s, while Vietnam Airlines converted 16.Excluding today's conversion by ANA, Boeing holds orders for 847 787s, split between 205 787-9s and 642 -8s. That breakdown is expected to further shift towards the -9 as its capabilities become clearer.ANA did not specify a timeline for delivery of the 787-9s, which are slated to enter service with Air New Zealand at the end of 2013.The Japanese carrier, which has yet to announce its first destination with the 787, is currently slated to receive its first 787-8 in February 2011 after nearly three years of delays.

Je dirais aussi ... Retourner à la longueur (Et capacité) du 787-3 d'origine ! (Même coque que le 787-9, sauf erreur de ma part !)
Bien il faudra utiliser un avion Ultra Long Haul, pour du local, ce ne sera pas la première foi pour les Jap's, voir leurs 747 et 777 transformés en bétaillères inter îles !
On ne met pas 400 pax dans un 787-8, même en les tassant comme dans leur métro !

Le 787-3 a la même cellule que le 787-3... même longueur de fuselage.. en tout cas. Pas de wingrakes par contre.
Le passage au 787-9 n'est effectivement pas neutre... de la part d'ANA
Il ne va leur rester que les 787-8 première série et des 787-9 non ?

BOC Aviation inks deal for 30 Airbus A320s

BOC Aviation has signed a deal to buy 30 Airbus A320 family aircraft for delivery between 2012 and 2014."The current order is timely as the aviation industry has returned to profitability and airlines are looking to add capacity," says BOC Aviation CEO Robert Martin. "In the last three years, we successfully doubled the size of our fleet and have over 160 aircraft as of today." This order brings BOC Aviation's total A320 family orders to 128, of which 80 have been delivered. The Singapore-based leasing company says it will announce its decision on the new A320s' engines "shortly.""The announcement from BOC Aviation is another vote of confidence in the long-term appeal of the A320 family," says Airbus COO John Leahy. "It works well for the financial community based on its wide operator base, proven operating economics and strong residual values."Lessors of the new A320s will have the option to select sharklets, which are large wing tip devices that cut fuel burn by 3.5%, and which enhance environmental and payload-range performance, says BOC Aviation. The order is BOC Aviation's second this month. On 2 November the company placed an order for eight Boeing 777-300ERs to be leased to Thai Airways International on a long-term basis. Powered by General Electric GE90-115BL engines, the new 777s will be delivered from August 2012 to October 2013.BOC Aviation has a portfolio of 163 aircraft, with 69 aircraft on firm order and four on committed purchase and leaseback for delivery through to 2014.

China Southern to order six A330s and 30 A320s.

China Southern Airlines is ordering six Airbus A330 aircraft and 30 A320s for deliveries beginning in two years' time.The carrier, based in Guangzhou, has disclosed details of the acquisition agreement with Airbus to the Hong Kong stock exchange.China Southern states that it will begin taking delivery of the A320s in 2012, running to 2015, while the A330s will arrive over 2013-14.It has not identified the specific variant of A330 nor has it given an engine selection for either type. China Southern operates both the A330-200 and -300 and its fleet is powered by both Rolls-Royce Trent 700s and Pratt & Whitney PW4000s.China Southern similarly has a mix of CFM International CFM56 and International Aero Engines V2500 powerplants on its A320-family twin-jets.It states that the catalogue prices for the aircraft amount to $1.2 billion for the A330s and $2.5 billion for the A320s, but says it obtained price concessions "comparable" to those in a previous purchase of A320 aircraft in January this year.China Southern adds that, compared with its fleet at the end of December last year, the acquisition will raise its capacity by 13.9%.
