Boeing Co. said on Thursday it took seven new orders for commercial planes in the week ended Feb. 15 — three 767 jets and four 777s.

The 767 orders were from Chile’s LAN Airlines, which announced earlier this week that it was buying the three planes for $510 million as part of its long-term fleet strategy.

Boeing said on its website that the 777 orders were from unidentified customers.

The Chicago-based plane maker has net orders for nine aircraft so far this year.

Shares of Boeing, a Dow component, were down 28 cents, or 0.4 percent, to $72.20 in afternoon trading.
