ZIPAIR will receive two new Boeing 787‑8 aircraft this fiscal year, raising its fleet to ten, and the deliveries will include Starlink already installed; the airline’s eight existing 787‑8s already provide free high‑speed internet on all flights.
The carrier intends to introduce Boeing 787‑9s after 2027 by converting eleven of Japan Airlines’ 787‑9s to ZIPAIR specifications, which would bring the total fleet to twenty‑one aircraft and support a target of twenty aircraft by 2031–2032, while operating three to four round‑trip flights per week to Toronto and a Disney Orlando charter in February–March 2027.
