Air India to lease three 777-300 ER from Singapore Airlines

Air India will lease three Boeing 777-300 ER from Singapore Airlines as it expands its fleet modernisation strategy. These aircraft are in addition to the 11 777 leased aircraft and will be used to phase out the older 777-200 aircraft which were inducted in 2009. These aircraft have older cabins and often have been subject of passenger ire due to crumbling seats, broken lavatories and dysfunctional seat-back entertainment screens. Air India has announced the sale of these aircraft.
