CNN — Boeing got a huge vote of confidence for its troubled 737 Max Tuesday as International Airlines Group announced it plans to buy 200 of the jets.
Boeing and IAG, the owner of Aer Lingus, British Airways, Iberia and others, announced a letter of intent on the purchase of the jets at the Paris Air Show.
Although IAG does use wide-body jets from Boeing, the purchase is a major shift for IAG, which now almost exclusively uses the A320 family aircraft from rival Airbus for its single-aisle jets.
