The Boeing 767-300 is a long-range civil aircraft, built by Boeing. It was first flown in 1986, and is still operated by many major airlines. The 767-300 is expected to be replaced gradually by the new Boeing 787, in the future. It has a Freight version (767-300F), aswell as an Extended Range (Boeing 767-300ER) version, which has a longer service range and fuel capacity.

The 767-300's direct competitor from Airbus is the A330-200. The 767-300 is expected to be replaced by the 787-8 in Boeing's lineup. As of August 2009, total orders for the 767-300/300ER/300F stand at 749 with 690 delivered.
