Silk Way West Airlines Buys an Extra Boeing 777 Freighter

Silk Way West Airlines, based in Baku, Azerbaijan, which serves the Caspian and Central Asian region, has amended its contract with Boeing to purchase an additional Boeing 777 Freighter, scheduled for delivery in 2025. This amendment, announced March 18, is an extension to an original agreement signed in April 2021 for five 777 Freighters, two of which have already been received, with delivery of the remaining jets to take place by 2027.

Silk Way West says the Boeing 777 Freighter is renowned for its environmental performance, offering reduced emissions and lower fuel consumption compared to other freighter aircraft. "At Silk Way West Airlines, we are committed to sustainability and reducing our environmental impact," said Zaur Akhundov, president of Silk Way Group. "The purchase of this additional Boeing 777 Freighter aircraft is a testament to our ongoing efforts to operate responsibly and minimize our carbon footprint. We are proud to partner with Boeing to further renew our fleet and contribute to a greener future for the aviation industry."
