In accordance with the previously announced schedule for obtaining the aircraft until the end of 2017, "Victory" no longer plans to take Boeing 737-800. In 2018, the fleet should be replenished with eight aircraft, in 2019 - another six.

This design is used to reduce fuel consumption by 1.6% and reduce emissions of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
