Blue1 to add MD-95 (717-200) to Fleet

Blue1 officially confirmed an order for the Boeing MD-95 (717-200) today with the first aircraft scheduled for delivery in mid August with an additional 8 being delivered during the following 6 months. The carrier plans to have a 14 MD-95 (717-200) strong fleet. The carrier has also indicated the 14 aircraft will sport various liveries though no indication of the significance was given.

The MD-90's will be the first to be retired from the fleet, more than likely by end of this year with the BAE Systems Avro 146-RJ85 to follow early next year.
