Boeing excludes Air India 171 — a 787-8 that crashed in June 2025, killing 241 of the 242 aboard and 19 on the ground — because ICAO had not yet classified it. The rate below does not contain that crash.

The 787 carried over a billion passengers before its first fatal accident: Air India 171, a 787-8, in June 2025. It killed 241 of the 242 people aboard and 19 people on the ground. It was the family's first crash in fourteen years of service, and it is the reason this page will never tell you an aircraft has never killed anyone.
