Boeing 777-300

The Boeing 777-300, launched in 1995 and entering service in 1998, is the stretched variant of the original 777 family and represents Boeing Commercial Airplanes’ response to growing demand for high‑capacity, long‑range twin‑jets. Developed alongside the 777‑200ER, the 300 version adds 33 feet (10.1 m) to the fuselage, allowing seating for up to 550 passengers in a dense, all‑economy layout, though typical two‑class configurations carry 368‑440 travelers. Powered by either the GE90‑115B or the Rolls‑Royce Trent 800 turbofan, the aircraft delivers thrust up to 115,300 lbf, enabling a maximum range of roughly 6,800 nautical miles with full payload. Advanced fly‑by‑wire flight controls, a glass cockpit shared with the 777‑200, and wing‑tip devices for fuel efficiency underscore its modern engineering. The 777‑300 has become a workhorse for carriers such as Emirates, United Airlines, and Singapore Airlines, supporting busy intercontinental routes and helping airlines replace older wide‑bodies while reducing operating costs per seat. Its success paved the way for the later 777‑300ER and 777X variants, cementing the 777 series as a cornerstone of contemporary aviation and a benchmark for long‑haul efficiency. Today the model remains in service worldwide, demonstrating Boeing’s enduring commitment to innovation.
