Boeing 787 Dreamliner is starting to show its promise
Fort Worth, Tx. - After years of delay, the world's biggest airline is finally using one of the newest passenger jets. American Airlines began flying the Boeing 787 between Dallas and Chicago on Thursday — a warm-up for the jet's real role on long international flights. By August, American will be flying 787s from the U.S. to Beijing, Buenos Aires, Shanghai and Tokyo. More routes are in the works, company officials say.

The plane, which Boeing calls the Dreamliner, is starting to live up to its promise of giving more travellers the chance to fly nonstop to distant places. Among the new Dreamliner routes:
— Austin, Texas, to London on British Airways.
— Boston to Tokyo on Japan Airlines.
— Denver to Tokyo on United Airlines.
— San Francisco to Chengdu, China, also on United.
Before, those trips likely would have required a connecting flight. | READ MORE
