State-run Air India is open to selling all eight of its Boeing 777 passenger aircraft, Chairman Rohit Nandan said, and the debt-ridden carrier is seeking Boeing's help in talks with potential buyers.
Air India will replace the routes flown by the aircrafts with high-tech 787 Dreamliner jets initially, he said.
