Boeing, known for its 787 Dreamliner series, once proposed a short-haul version known as the 787-3. The aircraft was intended to complement the existing 787-8, 787-9, and 787-10 models. However, the 787-3 never reached production.
The concept behind the 787-3 was to serve markets requiring higher passenger capacity on shorter routes. Boeing aimed to offer an efficient solution for airlines operating in densely populated regions where such demand existed.
Despite initial interest from potential buyers, including some airlines placing orders for this model, the project did not advance beyond its conceptual stage. Various factors contributed to this decision, including shifts in market demands and strategic adjustments by Boeing.
