Comair today announced an order for eight Boeing 737-800 aircraft to update the fleet of its low-fare airline, kulula.com. The aircraft are valued at approximately $646 million at current list prices.
The order previously was attributed to an unidentified customer on Boeing's orders and deliveries website.
Launched in 2001, kulula.com currently operates an all-Boeing fleet of ten 737s, including three leased 737-800s. Comair also operates as a franchise partner of British Airways, with thirteen 737 airplanes flying domestically in South Africa and regionally in Southern Africa.
