As of August 2008, 56 customers have placed orders for 1,092 777s. Direct market competitors to the 777 are the Airbus A330-300, A340, and A350 XWB. The current 777 family will be replaced by a new set of aircraft, tentatively known as the 777-8X and 777-9X. The -8X will be approximately the same size as the -300 series while offereing the ultra-long range capability of the -200LR, while the -9X will have similar range to the -300ER but with a longer fuselage, increasing passenger capacity. It will be the largest twinjet in the world in terms of length, maximum takeoff weight, and passenger capacity. Both variants will incorporate new engines and other advanced technologies from the 787.
