ROLE
The 737-800 is a stretched version of the
737-700, and replaces the 737-400.
It also filled the gap left by the decision to discontinue the McDonnell
Douglas MD-80 and
MD-90 following Boeing's merger with McDonnell Douglas. The −800 was
launched
by Hapag-Lloyd Flug (now TUIfly) in 1994 and entered service in 1998. The
737-800
seats 177 passengers in a two-class layout, or 189 in one class, and competes
with the A320.
In February 2016 Boeing launched a passenger
to freighter conversion program
designated the 737-800BCF (for Boeing Converted Freighter). Boeing started
the program with
orders for 55 conversions with the first converted aircraft due to be being
delivered in late 2017.
