Golf carrier Emirates Airlines announced at the Dubai Air Show that they had reached an agreement with the US aircraft manufacturer Boeing on the purchase of two B777 freighters. These are to be operated under the Emirates SkyCargo brand.

The order value at list prices is approximately $ 704 million. The SkyCargo fleet currently consists of ten Boeing 777Fs. Since the beginning of the corona pandemic, this has been reinforced again and again by passenger planes that are temporarily converted into so-called “Preighters”.
