This is pure speculation, but it could be for one of the Chinese airlines...they seem to be on a shopping spree at the moment (see recent Airbus order).

1 billion for 5? That could also be an order for 772LRs. That aircraft´s price-tag is very high as well. Although, in Euros thats becoming cheaper and cheaper now...

The Etihad order is old news. This surely is a new one.

I hope its Aeromexico. It could be an amazing combination (aircraft/livery)

Boeing's website, under the orders reports, shows that the 5 unidentified 777s are 777-300ERs. The order was posted on November 30th, so Bloomberg is a little behind.

I don't think its Aeromexico either, but I would like it to be. However, if they start servicing London, Frankfurt, and maybe Barcelona; they will need more than 3 777s

N328KF,
On the orders page, click on "User Defined Reports" at the top. Then you can select the criteria for your search. For date range, I put Jan. - Dec. 2004, and for Model No. 777. It'll then give you a list of all the customers and models ordered. This list is updated at the end of each month.

I'm not sure if this is the same order, but there is an unidentified customer for 5 777-300ERs made on 30 November 2004, as Hoya mentioned...
I posted this thread, for that "official" feeling left by the media.
Check out "USER DEFINED REPORT" found on that O&D website.

I thought Air India was talking about ordering the 777. Could it be them?

I'm guessing Etihad has finally firmed up their orders for their intended 5 -300ERs proposed a couple of months ago...
Is it Etihad, everyone?

SQ placed an order for the 773ER earlier this year, and it was for more then 5 frames. 13-18 I believe is what the order was for which still probably has to become firm.
This is probably the Ethiad order being firmed up.

I wonder why they publish these figures. I mean in a booming economy this is good marketing but what when they get more and more behind Airbus (or vice versa)- then it would be better to keep the orders secret like most other companies (in other industries) do.
Is there a special reason why they publish the figures or has it just become customary ?

26 ConcordeBoy: The Thai order was not for ER frames. *buzz* WRONG!
27 Iowa744fan: The CO comments made me ponder something. When is the decision about which carrier will get rights into China to be announced?
28 EA CO AS: Sheesh! Everyone knows those B-777-300ERs are destined for Alaska Airlines!
29 As739x: R...that what I'm saying....rumors are running all over the company about our new 777-300er's.....launch service will be the long rumored SEA-MSY ASSF
30 Clickhappy: well, I was told this afternoon at the China Airlines 747 Dreamliner event that this is the Ethiad order and will be announced next week.
31 Behramjee: http://www.boeing.com/news/breakingnews/2004/040910g.html Yes it does seem that this is merely the contract signing process of the EY order for 5 B 77
32 Ramerinianair: I think that CO would wait until the route to China were confirmed, otherwise, they would have the a/c and no prospective routes if it were a 773ER or
33 Lockheed1011: Way to go Boeing!!!!!!!!! Nothing like Boeing Commercial Bird, specially the 777.......
34 Greaser: Sheesh! Everyone knows those B-777-300ERs are destined for Alaska Airlines! I would think a 777-200LR is more applicable because they could make it AN
35 Britmex: NO, it is AVIACSA!!! Now that AM is dropping the CDG route 6A wants it!!!!! No, seriously it could really be AM since although they signed initially
36 Zkojh: could be NZ taking some of there options and making them into firm orders!!
37 MauriceB: what about KLM? they are happy with the 777's and with only 6 A330's on order to replace 12 767's it good be very much possible to replace them with 7
38 Greaser: MauriceB, good thought. I guess the 777-300ERs would be an excellent replacement/supplement to their 747s, and their brother AF operates the 777-300ER
39 FlyMeToTheMoon: Could it be US Airways? Just kidding.... Most likely one of the mainland China airlines or Ethiad.
