Boeing Sells New 787 as Singapore Splits $17 Billion Order

Boeing Co. won the first order for the stretched version of its 787 Dreamliner as Singapore Airlines Ltd., Southeast Asia’s biggest carrier, split a purchase of jets with Airbus SAS valued at $17 billion.

The transaction covers 30 of the larger, 787-10X variant and 30 Airbus A350-900s, Singapore Airlines said yesterday. The airline also granted an option for 20 more 350-900s and said it may convert those to buy the larger A350-1000 variant.
