Boeing (NYSE:BA) and Air Cambodia announced the airline's first-ever purchase of Boeing aircraft on Tuesday, unveiling a deal for up to 20 737-8 jets at the 2026 Singapore Airshow.
The agreement includes a firm order for 10 of the fuel-efficient narrowbodies with options for an additional 10 aircraft.
Valued at approximately $2.4 billion at list prices, the transaction represents the largest single-aisle order in the history of the Phnom Penh-based carrier.
The 737-8s are central to Air Cambodia’s aggressive fleet renewal and regional expansion strategy.
Configured to carry 178 passengers in a two-class layout, the aircraft offers a range of 3,500 nautical miles, enabling the airline to launch new direct routes to North and Southeast Asian markets.
The 737-8 provides a 20% reduction in fuel consumption and carbon emissions compared to the legacy aircraft it will replace, a critical factor for the airline as it targets long-term profitability and sustainability.
The transaction was previously listed as "unidentified" on Boeing's Orders and Deliveries website for December 2025.
