Riyadh Air (RX, Riyadh) has taken delivery of the first two B787-9s from its direct order with Boeing. The aircraft are the first two jets that the carrier will use for commercial service, as they will replace a trial B787-9 dry-leased from Oman Air.

HZ-RXAA (msn 69471) and HZ-RXAB (msn 69472) were ferried from Charleston International and Everett, respectively, directly to Riyadh on June 4-5, 2026. Despite ferrying from different Boeing sites, the aircraft arrived to Saudi Arabia in formation.

The two B787-9s are the first of a total of 39 units that Riyadh Air has on order from Boeing. They are configured for up to 290 passengers each, including 28 business class seats, 39 premium economy, and 223 economy class.

Riyadh Air's current only aircraft, HZ-RXX (msn 38892), was only leased for certification and test flights and is not intended to operate revenue flights once the airline launches scheduled flights on July 1, 2026.

The carrier also has a firm order for sixty A321-200NX and twenty-five A350-1000s.

Pegasus Airlines (PC, Istanbul Sabiha Gökcen) is not planning any further acquisitions in the near term and remains focused on obtaining the regulatory approvals for the takeover of Smartwings Group, chief executive Güliz Öztürk said during a panel discussion at the IATA AGM in Rio de Janeiro. "We won't be looking at more acquisitions, not now. First we have to be successful with Smartwings," she said, and highlighted that acquisitions are difficult and require, among other things, a "cultural fit" between airlines. The Turkish carrier hopes to obtain the European Commission's green light for the acquisition of the Czech group, first announced in December 2025, in three to four months.

Haven MRO, the Federal Aviation Administration Part 145-approved maintenance division of Haven Aviation Services Group, has opened a new facility at Rochester, NY.

The Rochester facility marks Haven MRO's fourth location, after Amarillo Rick Husband International, where the company is headquartered, Green Bay, and Buffalo Niagara International. Haven ASG further includes executive jet charter and aircraft management specialist Haven Aero, and expanded into the fixed-base operation (FBO) sector in late 2025 with the launch of Haven FBO at Amarillo.

The Swedish Air Force took delivery of two Global 6500s on June 1. The two ultra-long-range jets were handed over by the defence procurement agency, Försvarets Materielverk, which received both aircraft in late 2025. The Global 6500s, with manufacturer serial numbers 60148 and 60178 and built in 2024 and 2025, were formerly placed in the Swedish civilian register as SE-DRO and SE-DRP, respectively. Both were reregistered on May 8 under military markings, expected to be 106148/064 and 106178/065.

Acquired under a SEK1.1 billion kronor (USD117 million) contract, the Bombardier Business Aircraft will replace the current Swedish VIP fleet operated by the air force, comprising a 2000-built GIV-SP (Tp102C) and a 2011-produced G550 (Tp102D).
