Aeromexico will introduce three Boeing 787-8s on lease from International Lease Finance (ILFC), beginning in early 2010. The deal is the first for the new twinjet from a Latin American operator. The 787s, along with 777s acquired in an earlier deal with ILFC, will be used on routes to Europe and Asia and will replace Boeing 767s that are coming off lease.
