Air India: in the red, unable to purchase fuel in advance and spending far more than can be said to be sustainable, but its priority is ensuring it can afford the delivery of the 787s it has on order. Air India is to start the process of financing seven Boeing 787s by floating a proposal to raise $850 million (Rs.3,842 crore) within the next month. The Indian flag carrier is due to take delivery of the first of seven 787s it has on order between October and March 2012. The airline still has a total of 27 787s on order.
