    RIO DE JANEIRO, June 7 (Reuters) - All Nippon Airways 9202.T CEO Juichi Hirasawa said on Sunday the Japanese carrier still expects to take Boeing’s BA.N 777X during fiscal 2027, and to hit a fleet target of 320 planes by fiscal 2030, despite delays by the U.S. plane maker.
In the case of further delays to the 777X, which is pending certification, ANA would put off the retirement of existing widebody aircraft, Hirasawa told reporters on the sidelines of a global airline summit in Rio de Janeiro. ANA's fiscal year starts in April.
