A Boeing 787 Dreamliner made its India debut last week, landing at New Delhi International Airport at 11.09 a.m. from Tokyo.

Air India is one of the early customers and has ordered twenty seven 787s. Jet Airways also has ordered 10 Dreamliners.

The airplane departed for Mumbai Airport in the evening of 15 July and flew back to Seattle on the morning of 16 July 2011.

The 787 Dreamliner is built by an international team and will provide airlines around the globe with around a 20% reduction in fuel use when compared to similar-sized airplanes.

The 787 will also feature bigger windows and more personal space as well as an environment designed to help them arrive at their destinations feeling more refreshed.
