LONDON--Dart Group PLC (DTG.LN), an aviation services group,
Thursday said it has entered into an agreement with U.S. aircraft
manufacturer Boeing Co. (BA) to purchase a further three new Boeing
737-800NG aircraft, following a previous order for 27 made in
September.
The additional three aircraft will be delivered between
September 2016 and April 2018, it said in a statement.
The aircraft will cost "substantially the same" as those
approved by the company for the order of the 27 aircraft. At
current prices, the total value of the transaction for the three
aircraft is $288 million, even though the group said it has
negotiated "significant discounts", without providing further
information.
The deal is expected to be funded through a combination of
internal resources and debt, it said.
At 0957 GMT, shares rose 0.4% to 562 pence.
