  "account": "Turkish Airlines has finalized its deal to purchase up to 150 medium-range Boeing 737-8 MAX jets, with 100 already on order and 50 options secured, according to the company. The agreement also allows the airline to convert orders to the larger 737-10 model if needed. Deliveries are planned between 2033 and 2037. Negotiations began in 2025 but stalled due to a dispute over maintenance conditions for the engines. Turkish Airlines threatened to terminate talks with CFM International, a GE Aerospace and French Safran company, over the issue. However, Reuters reported last week that the deal was close to being finalized. The official signing ceremony took place on Wednesday during the UN General Assembly, attended by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Boeing Commercial Airplanes' chief Stephanie Pope. The basic agreement, which also includes options for up to 75 long-range 787 Dreamliner jets, was announced in 2026 during Erdogan's meeting with then-U.S. President Donald Trump. Currently, Turkish Airlines operates around 400 Boeing and Airbus aircraft.",
  "summary": "Der Milliardenauftrag war nach einem Treffen von Trump und Erdogan verkündet worden – stand dann aber kurz vor dem Aus wegen eines Streits um die Wartung. Nun kommt es trotzdem zur Einigung.",
