Boeing [NYSE: BA<\/a>] and BBAM Limited Partnership today announced the lessor is expanding its 737-800 Boeing Converted Freighter fleet with six firm orders and six options. The agreement brings BBAM\u2019s 737-800BCF orders and commitments to 15 and highlights the continued strength of the e-commerce and express cargo market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs we look ahead to expanding our cargo fleet, the 737-800 Boeing Converted Freighter provides the performance and efficiency our customers need,\u201d said Steve Zissis, CEO of BBAM. \u201cAdding these highly capable freighters to 276 Boeing airplanes in our managed fleet helps to further strengthen our leadership position in the marketplace.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Based on the popular Next-Generation 737, the 737-800BCF is meeting customer demand for a newer-generation freighter that offers higher reliability and lower fuel consumption and operating costs per trip compared to other standard body freighters. Primarily used to carry express cargo on domestic or short-haul routes, the airplane is capable of carrying up to 23.9 tonnes (52,800 pounds) and flying up to 2,025 nautical miles (3,750 kilometers). Since entering service in 2018, the 737-800BCF has won more than 150 orders and commitments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBBAM is one of the industry\u2019s leading full-service leasing companies and has built their reputation on smart investments. We are honored that BBAM has selected more 737-800BCFs, based on the success of our standard body freighters in their portfolio,\u201d said Ihssane Mounir, Boeing\u2019s senior vice president of Commercial Sales and Marketing. \u201cThe continued strong demand for the 737-800BCF demonstrates the critical role these converted freighters play in the growing express and e-commerce market.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
