BOEING and Icelandair have announced a US$1.6 billion order for sixteen 737MAX aircraft to accompany the carrier's 757 fleet, reports Atlanta's Air Cargo World. "The 737 MAX will complement our Boeing 757 operations seamlessly and allow us to continue our route expansion in the most fuel-efficient manner," said Icelandair Group president and CEO Bjorgolfur Johannsson. The carrier uses Reykjavik, Iceland, as a hub between North America and Europe to build a network of more than 35 international destinations, said the report.  Asian Shipper News
