The Boeing 787 Dreamliner is an all-new, super-efficient family of commercial airplanes that brings big-jet ranges and speed to the middle of the market. As a stretch of the 787-8, the 787-9 can fly more passengers and cargo farther -- 290 passengers over 7,635 nautical miles (14,140 km) - yet with the same 20 percent better fuel and emissions, allowing airlines to grow routes first opened by the 787-8.
