Boeing announced deals with two separate Saudi Arabian airlines on Tuesday with the potential for a sale of 121 airplanes in agreements hailed by the White House.
New Saudi Arabian carrier Riyadh Air, owned by the nation's Public Investment Fund, also committed to purchasing 38 Boeing 787-9s, with the option for 33 more.
Boeing said the orders from the Saudi firms combined are the fifth-largest commercial order in the company's history, and support the Middle East nation's goal of being able to provide service to 330 million passengers and attracting some 100 million visitors annually by the end of the decade.
