British Airways is reportedly holding discussions with aircraft manufacturer Boeing on the possibility of replacing its fleet of Boeing 767s with the 7E7 Dreamliner.
The new 7E7 Dreamliner - the company's first all-new design in more than a decade - is still at the planning stage but a 200-seat 7E7 is expected to enter service in 2008, while a stretched 250-seat version is expected to be released later to fill a mid-sized niche in long-haul fleets.
Meanwhile, British Airways is also said to be holding discussions with Airbus concerning the A330 aircraft, reported Reuters.
