Boeing 777-200LR

77L B77L Out of Production

Marketed as the 'Worldliner', the Boeing 777-200LR was the longest-range commercial airliner of its time, built for ultra-long-haul sectors. It seats about 291 passengers in two classes and up to 440 single-class, with two GE90-115BL turbofans supporting a range of roughly 17,370 km at 905 km/h. First flown in 2005, the aircraft is 63.7 metres long with a 64.8-metre wingspan and a maximum takeoff weight of 347,452 kg. That year a 777-200LR set the record for the longest nonstop flight by a commercial aircraft, covering 21,602 km eastbound from Hong Kong to London. The type held the long-range crown until the arrival of the ultra-long-range A350 variants.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Boeing 777-200LR (Worldliner) typically seats 317 passengers in a three-class configuration. Some airlines configure it with as few as 238 seats in spacious premium-heavy layouts. The cabin width is identical to other 777 variants at 5.87 m, typically arranged 3-3-3 in economy class.

The Boeing 777-200LR holds the record for the longest-range commercial aircraft ever produced, with a maximum range of approximately 17,370 km (9,380 nautical miles). It set a world record in 2005 by flying 21,601 km from Hong Kong to London flying eastward over the Pacific and North America. This range enables nonstop routes like Auckland to Doha, Dallas to Sydney, or Dubai to Los Angeles.

The A350-900ULR (Ultra Long Range) can fly up to 18,000 km, surpassing the 777-200LR's 17,370 km. The A350-900ULR also offers better fuel efficiency per seat thanks to its composite airframe and newer-generation engines. However, the 777-200LR has a wider cabin and higher cargo capacity. Singapore Airlines uses the A350-900ULR for the world's longest commercial flight from Singapore to New York at approximately 16,700 km.

The 777-200LR is externally similar to the 777-200ER but can be identified by its distinctive raked wingtips (instead of the conventional wingtips on earlier 777-200 variants) and GE90-115B engines, the most powerful jet engines ever produced. It also has three additional fuel tanks in the rear cargo hold. The raked wingtips give the wing a more swept appearance than earlier 777 variants.

Emirates operates the largest 777-200LR fleet with over 10 aircraft. Other operators include Qatar Airways, Delta Air Lines, and Pakistan International Airlines. Only 60 777-200LR aircraft were delivered, making it a relatively rare variant. The type is used primarily on ultra-long-haul routes where its range capability is essential, such as Doha to Auckland (14,529 km), one of the world's longest commercial routes.
