PAUL GORDON/BOEING promised, but it is by far the most popular aircraft in our fleet for both customers and employees,” he said. “The 787 has the highest customer satisfaction scores of any aircraft in our fleet, and we get dozens of letters from customers who loved flying the 787.” Just as the 787-8 has attracted fans worldwide who prefer flying on it compared with other twin-aisle airplanes, Kreeger said the 787-9 will help differentiate Virgin Atlantic from its competitors flying from the U.K., as it will be the first in Europe to fly the new model. “We believe that our passengers will really enjoy this improved passenger experience,” he said, “and it will leave them wanting to come back and fly on it again and again.” n eric.c.fetters-walp@boeing.com
