Vietnam’s Bamboo Airways plans to order as many as 25 narrow- and wide-body Boeing Co. aircraft this year as the nation’s newest carrier prepares for flights to the U.S. and Europe, according to people familiar with the matter, who asked not to be identified because negotiations are underway.
The deal would increase Bamboo Airways’ Boeing fleet to 55. The carrier’s parent, property and leisure company FLC Group, agreed last year to buy 24 Airbus SE A321neo planes worth $3.2 billion at list price. The airline began service in January.
