BREAKING
Flight has confirmed that Boeing has received a letter of intent to purchase its 747-8i from a second airline customer.
UPDATE: The letter of intent was signed today by Nigeria's Arik for three 747-8i and seven 737s. The variant of the 737s will be either -800 or -900, but has not yet been determined.
Details to follow
The order was from Arik Air for 3 747-8i's
Now that the 747-8I program has a second blue chip airline on board, I am sure the orders will start rolling in.

Second blue chip airline?!! Arik havent even started widebody operations yet! I doubt any airline will be influenced by the actions of Arik air, Their fleet strategy is not exactly consistent.
That aside, its still positive to see another airline moving on the passenger varient.
@ Ed - you must be American.
