What aircraft could Turkish Airlines order?
There’s no real insight yet as to what this aircraft order will look like. My assumption is that this order will be with both Airbus and Boeing. With Turkish Airlines looking to pick up 600 planes, we’ll likely see a little bit of everything.
When it comes to the 200 wide body planes Turkish Airlines plans to order:
I think it’s a given that Turkish Airlines will pick up more Airbus A350-900s and Boeing 787-9s, as the airline already has these in its fleet
I wouldn’t be surprised to also see some other variants of those jets, like Airbus A350-1000s and Boeing 787-10s
I also wouldn’t be surprised to see Turkish Airlines order the Boeing 777-9, as its new flagship aircraft; that aircraft is currently expected to enter service as of 2025, though it has already been delayed by five years, so who really knows
