AUA Examines Extended Use of Boeing 767

"Currently, it looks like the arrival of the Dreamliner is being delayed due to the known delivery difficulties at Boeing and also at other suppliers in the supply chain," says AUA board member Michael Trestl, who is moving to ITA Airways in Rome on February 1st.

AUA Wants Dreamliner Backup for Delay

The AUA press office explained to APA on request that an extension of the use of the Boeing 767 is currently being examined, "in order to have a backup in case of an actual delayed arrival of the further 'Dreamliner'". AUA has already been operating two used Dreamliners since 2024. In total, eleven Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners are to replace the previous long-haul aircraft of the 777 and 767 series by 2028.
