Boeing and SunExpress (a joint venture between Turkish Airlines and Lufthansa) announced today that the airline has once again chosen to focus on the 737 MAX to continue its strong growth. With a commitment to purchase up to 90 fuel-efficient Boeing single-aisle jets announced at the Dubai Airshow, Turkey’s leading leisure carrier will double its fleet over the next decade. The deal includes 28 737-8s and 17 737-10s, with the possibility of 45 additional 737 MAX aircraft.

Boeing and Emirates today announced that the world’s leading operator of Boeing 777 aircraft has ordered 90 Boeing 777X aircraft, including 55 Boeing 777-9s and 35 Boeing 777-8s. This new order, which brings the number of 777X family aircraft ordered by Emirates to 205 units, was announced at the Dubai Airshow. In addition, Emirates has updated its 787 Dreamliner order book to better align future capacity with demand.

Discovery and other members of the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) is expected to conclude in early December,” said the chief negotiator of the actors union, Duncan Crabtree-Ireland.

UK petrol station operator EG has announced a deal to acquire Tesla’s latest ultra-fast charging units for ‘evpoint’, its rapidly growing electric vehicle charging business in the UK and Europe.

Las Vegas unions, considered among the strongest in the United States, said they had won the largest wage increases ever negotiated in their history. “This agreement will help give all workers the quality of life they deserve,” commented Joe Biden.
