  • Despite delays, Qatar Airways stands behind the 787 program!

    Chief Executive Akbar al-Baker noted, however, that there are no current plans to amend Qatar Airways' multibillion-dollar orders for 30 787s and options for 30 more.

    "If there is another slip, yes we will have no alternative" but to consider canceling orders, he said. "But as of today, I still have confidence in Boeing."

    Al-Baker has been one of the most vocal critics of 787 delays. He wouldn't say how long the carrier would hold out before canceling its orders if delays continued.

    Well, at least someone is not screaming for blood from Boeing. Just happy to see that they are not threathening to cancel the order. If they did it would be a rather large blow to the program, but others might have been happy to get their order sooner!
    Whatever is necessary, is never unwise.
