From a business standpoint, there’s a reason why more and more commercial airlines are ordering the Boeing 787 Dreamliner. In the world of aviation, every ounce of fuel saved translates to thousands of dollars of savings; every smooth flight can attract more loyal customers; and every extra inch of cabin space can hold more people or provide a better, premium experience. Captain Alexis Fecteau shares with us the business value behind Boeing’s 787 Dreamliner.

Calling it The Dreamliner Effect, Boing promises to create astounding opportunity for business partners with the Boeing 787. The aircraft costs 15% less in operating expense compared to other models. And because of its lightweight build and design, the 787 consumes about 20% less than other models. Maintenance costs are also 30% lower compared to other planes, given its modular design which makes placing new fixtures or reconfiguring cabin spaces easier.

Given the 787 Dreamliner’s design and fuel consumption, the aircraft is one of the few models in the world that allows for long-distance flights. And while most people have problems when it comes to the comfort levels of long-haul flights, passengers are sure to notice one of the Dreamliner’s defining features: where most commercial airplanes get their cabin air from the engine, the 787 Dreamliner gets air from outside the cabin. This unique source of cabin air reduces stress levels and doesn’t leave passengers fatigued after long flights.

Lastly, the 787 Dreamliner has the clientele base and the track record to prove that it is more than profitable compared to other models. Captain Alexis Fecteau believes that Boeing’s 787 Dreamliner is one of the most worthwhile investments in the aviation industry today.
