List of Boeing customer codes
Unique, fixed customer codes were used by Boeing Commercial Airplanes to denote the original customer for airframes produced as part of Boeing's 7x7 family of commercial aircraft from 1956 , with the introduction of the 707, up till 2016.
The codes are in the form of two letters and/or numbers which are appended to the aircraft's model designator, as seen in the following examples:
- A Boeing 737-800 ordered by SilkAir with customer code SA would be designated as Boeing 737-8SA.
- A Boeing 747-400 ordered by Korean Air with customer code B5 would be designated as Boeing 747-4B5.
- A Boeing 777F ordered by GECAS with customer code 6N would be designated as Boeing 777-F6N.
- A Boeing 777-300ER ordered by Cathay Pacific with customer code 67 would be designated as Boeing 777-367.
Before the 707, Boeing used a generally similar system to identify the presence of detailed variations or options requested by particular customers, but the codes were not customer-specific.
In 2016, Boeing announced that they would no longer apply customer codes to any aircraft produced after a certain point, which would lead to their designators being the "generic" type for the model. The codes were removed from the type certificates for each model with effect from the production line number shown below:
- Boeing 737 Next Generation: line number 6082
- Boeing P-8 Poseidon: line number 6020
- Boeing 747-8: line number 1534
- Boeing 767: line number 1102
- Boeing 777: line number 1422
List
Boeing generally allocated new codes in sequence, with the exception of 01 to 19 being issued after 21 to 99. Code number 20 itself came to be reserved for Boeing's own use, though this was only ever formally the case for the 707.- 21 to 99 - First Sequence
- 01 to 19 - Second Sequence
- A0 to Z9 - Third Sequence
- 0A to 9Z - Fourth Sequence
- AA to ZZ - Fifth and final sequence
Please note that the list of aircraft types for each airline is only those produced with that of the airline's code, and is not intended to reflect their complete operational history for Boeing aircraft.
