The Boeing 787 Dreamliner is a large leap forward in aircraft design, a "clean-sheet" widebody that fundamentally changed how we fly long distances. As the first major commercial airliner constructed primarily of carbon-fiber reinforced polymers, the Dreamliner is lighter, more fuel-efficient, and more durable than traditional aluminum aircraft. Passengers are treated to a unique experience with large electronically-dimmable windows, a lower cabin altitude, and higher humidity levels that significantly reduce jet lag. Powered by modern GEnx or Rolls-Royce Trent 1000 engines, the 787 excels at "point-to-point" travel, allowing airlines to connect smaller cities directly on ultra-long-range routes that were previously unprofitable.
