US and European regulators have reportedly given aircraft manufacturer Boeing's 777-300ER aircraft certification to carry passengers to destinations worldwide.

The US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) have reportedly formally recognised that the 777-300ER passed all testing and safety requirements during an 11-month flight test programme.

Air France will take delivery of the first 777-300ER aircraft next month through an agreement with International Lease Finance Corp.

Boeing has so far received orders for 63 of the aircraft from eight customers.
