Norwegian Airlines today took delivery of its first Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner leased through an agreement with MG Aviation.

The delivery is also the first Dreamliner to MG Aviation, the aviation leasing arm of Jordache Enterprises which has three additional 787s on order.

"The 787-9 Dreamliner will provide Norwegian with unrivalled operational advantages, large improvements in fuel efficiency and much lower costs," said Norwegian's CEO Bjørn Kjos. "In addition, it is an airplane that offers an exceptional in-flight experience."

Norwegian already operates eight 787-8s and will use its 787-9s to open up new routes across North America, South America and Southeast Asia with its increased range and capacity.
