Boeing today announced an order from UPS for eight more 767 Freighters. The incremental order will increase UPS's 767 Freighter fleet to 108 airplanes, enabling the global carrier to further modernize and sustainably grow its fleet. "The additional 767s will help us continue to deliver what matters to UPS customers around the world. This is a very versatile aircraft that we operate across every region of the globe," said UPS Executive Vice President and President US Nando Cesarone. "With these aircraft, our fleet will continue to be among the most modern in our industry, meeting our customers' needs while improving our efficiency, sustainability and reliability." Air cargo continues to play a crucial role in global trade, from supporting supply chains to expanding e-commerce. The IATA has estimated that global air cargo revenue in 2021 was more than double the revenue in pre-pandemic 2019.<br/>
