Airline: Lufthansa Exercises Purchase Option for 20 Boeing 737 Max 10

The Lufthansa has agreed to exercise 20 purchase options for Boeing 737 Max 10 aircraft, as approved by its Supervisory Board. This decision is based on a 2023 order for 40 Boeing 737 Max 8 planes, which included options for 60 more aircraft from the Boeing 737 Max family. The 737 Max 10, the largest variant of the family, offers greater comfort and higher seating capacity compared to the 737 Max 8.

Deliveries of the new aircraft are expected to start in the early 2030s, with a total value of around $3.4 billion. The order is part of Lufthansa's fleet modernization program, which includes the delivery of over 250 new aircraft by 2035.
