- Following the May 2023 delivery of its 37th Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner, American Airlines is now the world's largest operator of the variant. Japanese carrier All Nippon Airways, the launch customer for the Dreamliner, which was also a 787-8, now has the second-largest fleet, totaling 36.

The fact that the 787 is operated on this variety of routes shows its versatility as an aircraft family, from longhaul transpacific journeys to shorthaul domestic flights, the 787 lends itself well to these sorts of operations. This is why I see the 787 as a successor and replacement for the 767-200ER and -300ER which while they had a shorter range, were used for similar operations to what the 787 does now, albeit that the 787 has also enabled the opening of new city pairs because of its characteristics, and makes existing operations like Dallas to Narita that much more profitable due to the efficiency offered by the 787.
The 767 is a lovely plane, i will miss it as it slowly disappears from airlines
Right on with the info 👍🏾
That's really just the carrier rotating the aircraft between their hubs in most cases for repositioning. Short haul is not optimal use of the aircraft.
Please tell that to delta airlines, even with the upgraded 767 300er cabin the 787-8 is still a much better aircraft and would provide a much better traveling experience for passengers imo
@Mikel Sales The thing with that is, that at the moment, Delta has ordered the A330neo, and most of its 767s are still on the younger side, what will likely end up happening is that Delta uses the A330neo to replace its 767s, rather than the 787, which while upsetting that we'll never see a current generation 787 in a Delta livery, from a business standpoint, it makes no sense to operate them alongside each other, unless you fine tune them to different routes entirely, which would be a losing proposition.
I have actually flown on the 787-8 last October. PHL-AMS-PHL.
I loved the ride. Best experience I ever had. The improvements to the climate on board were a great help.
I've flown on both the American Airlines and ANA 787-8 variants. I flew ANA from Jakarta to Tokyo Narita, and I've flown on the American 787-8 on domestic routes (Miami to Dallas) and Latin American routes (Cancun to Dallas, Medellin to Miami, Bogotá to Miami). The premium economy seats on American are very good.
I've also flown 787-8 on United, Qatar Airways and Air Canada.
❤ the 787, -8 and -9. I have yet to fly in the -10 variant, but I'm sure it'll be amazing. Boeing changed the long haul passenger aircraft market many times in its history, but I think the DreamLiner is my favorite innovation (well, maybe 2nd after the Queen of the Skies).
I flew on AA 787-8 from Miami Fl down to Lima Peru. It was a very smooth and quiet flight.
1:01 American Airlines Flexing on ANA be like
I have flown JAL 787-8 Manila to Tokyo, it was a rough flight since the weather was bad, but the aircraft did her job by bringing us safely to Japan, then my Tokyo to Seattle flight was ANA 787-9. I love 787’s space and comfort in economy and the huge windows are great❤
Flown on both the 788 with Qatar twice and the 789 with TUI once
Noticed that TUI are using their 788/789 on UK to Turkey and Canary Islands flights which would normally have a 767/737
I like the 787. Had just flown in one recently for the first time,May 19 to be exact, Miami to Philadelphia. Return flight ,Philadelphia to Miami May 23.
Kenya Airways also increased the frequency of flights of the variant from 5 to 7 daily between NBO to JFK.
787 & a350 are by far the best newest planes
Flew a 787 from LAS-CLT. Great plane. Thanks AA
ANA's home airport is Haneda not Narita. ANA also deploys the 788 on their longest route between Mexico City and Tokyo
I'm indeed a fan of the 787, having flown on it a few times. I've made two flights aboard a 787-8 (June 2015 from LHR-YYZ with BA; September 2022 from HND-BKK with JL) and one flight aboard a 787-9 (September 2022 from BKK-HND with JL).
As an Airbus fanboy, I admit the Dreamliner to be an elegant (albeit chubby) aircraft.
I don´t recall flying it though.
“Chubby”?!?
You’re crazy, guy.
If a supremely aerodynamic design can contribute itself in being called 'chubby', I will take that Chubby
I´ve flown in the B787-8 from Miami to Madrid and back, it is impressive to see how the wings flex. Im not a fan of the seats, but it is my favorite plane when book a most favorable cabin than economy.
I actually prefer the 787-8s over the dash 9s and 10s 💙💙💙💙
I'm yet to try it. I hope it's good
Just quietly, there will be another US flag carrier set to take over ANA as the 787 largest operator overall… United airlines with their 100 orders. I remember flying on the ANA 787 when it was first launched. It was on SYD-HND service I think.
I have been on budget airlines B787-8 (Jetstar & Scoot) as well as B787-9 (Scoot). Yet to try other airlines’ B787. ✈️
I've only flown on 787-8 once YYZ/IST
Never flew on a 787. I would like to though. When the 787 first came out I thought it was a 757 replacement for some reason and thought it was a similar size & range plane. 😆 how wrong I was!
I hope that Cebu Pacific orders 787-8 because it's larger than a330s that CP owns, some passengers are complaining about CP a330s because they are so crowded. CP(Cebu Pacific)
Even if 5J (Cebu Pacific) orders the 787-8’s the results are still the same. They’ll put a lot of seats as many as they can so the plane will carry a lot of passengers. They’re will be no problem for the small stature of the passengers (average Filipino heights), but for the tall passengers, that would be a problem.
*It wasn’t the plane itself, it was the airline’s choice to generate profit.*
Well Airlines in the Philippines are Sticking to Airbus and CP, Got the A330-900Neo. 😝
Biased towards Airbus.
American always orders the smallest variant of any plane. Look how late to the party they were with the 777-300ER. They have never ordered the larger variant of the 737 or 737MAX so this really isn't any big news.
I guess when your owned by America West and run by Us Airways you can put as many seats as you want in those American 787's
I am a diehard 747 fan. Took many 1st/Bus class flights NYC to Tokyo / Hong Kong. I was really looking forward to flying the 787. Flew 1st class NYC - Tel Aviv recently. Sadly, I did not like the aircraft. The isles are too narrow and cabin cramped. I'll take a 747 / 777 anyday.
I flew on a 787-9 from Seattle to Taipei in coach and swore I never fly on that airline again. Coach seats were terrible overcrowded, narrow and uncomfortable and with the aisle as narrow as they were and having an aisle seat I must of been hit and run by fellow passengers several times. I did appreciate the lower attitude pressurization of the 787 and the fact we did not have much jet lag.
Then don't even get me to talk about the absolutely terrible staff at Taipei's airport. How to wreck a vacation to the Philippines both ways go through Taipei. Next time it is Haneda or Incheon
@@mikeske9777 It's economy, what did you expect? That's the price for the lower price.
i can:t tell the differnece. they all look the same on the inside.
The big improvement with the DreamLiner (and A350) is that since they are not made mostly of aluminum, they can be pressurized at something akin to 6,000 feet elevation instead of 8,000 in most other commercial airliners. Supposedly it's much easier on the body on long haul flights.
@@steinbockguy Can't tell the difference still. After flying from my home in Austin Texas to LAX or SEA, no difference. They're all the friggin' same.
Cool place but AA stuffs way too many seats in it.
234 seat does not seem like that dense
@@miraphycs7377 try sitting in economy for a 10 hour flight and you'll find out how dense it is.
Lol Honolulu airport also known as the Bed Bugs infested Airport
Más problema con aviones Boeing sin resolver 😅😅😅😅😅
funny short 787 with longer range
It’s range is actually less than the midsized variant
huh, didn't know that
@@filledwithvariousknowledge2747 but in their BBJ variant 788 has the longest range. it is so weird. Remember 788 is different from 789/78K. The 78K is a simple stretch of 789. 788 and 789 do not share that
Miami to Madrid…terrible! Not the 787-8 aircraft, but AA service and cabin comfort. The only bearable way to fly with American is business…
I have only flown the 787-9 and I am more of a A350 Fan
two different planes which share a manufacturing characteristic (composites), but aren't really competitors. DreamLiner is more a A330Neo competitor whereas the A350 is more a 777 competitor, and Boeing better get the 777-9 to market soon before the A350 eats up the need.
@@steinbockguy if you really compare the A350 to the B777, than the B777 is definitely the better plane. Never tried the A330neo, only the A330ceo and I think the B787 is better than the A330ceo
I don't like Dreamliners because there is no window flap. I take long exposure shots while flying for which a window flap is necessary. I've flown on the United 787-10 from EWR - LAX previously.
sufaendabu
American could better serve their B787-8 fleet on domestic medium & long haul routes . . . the Qatari full service carrier operate their B787-8 fleet on medium & long haul routes to South Asia & Europe, since 2014 . . .
problem is, those 787s wont do you any good when you're voted the one of the worst airlines to avoid as per the latest SF vid. lol.
I’m not a Dreamliner fan
Yeah nah. Horrible aircraft!!
They rint buy airbus
and Delta is no where to be found....their CEO is an Airbus fanboy. Nice hobby if you can get away with sticking your thumb in the eye of your US customer base.
And this is one of the reasons American Airlines has the worst reputation of all airlines.
Keep drinking whatever your high on!
Im more of a a350 fan I’ve flown the a350 from los angle’s to doha and I’ve flown the 787 9 from london to Islamabad
Are the seats as crammed together as the rest of their fleet is?
flew aeromexico 787 8 lhr to mex. too many seats across
