China Eastern Airlines’ commitment to the C919 is further evidenced by plans to launch a charter flight from Hong Kong to Shanghai using the jet on June 1st. This flight will transport Hong Kong university students participating in an exchange program to Shanghai.
As the delivery of the entire 100-aircraft order progresses, China Eastern’s C919 fleet is expected to continue expanding. The airline projects reaching a fleet size of 10 aircraft by the end of 2024, with additional routes being added to its network. This expansion underscores China Eastern’s dedication to enhancing its flight brand, profitability, and commitment to safety while delivering world-class flight experiences for its passengers.
The addition of the latest C919 jet and the ongoing expansion of the fleet mark a significant milestone for China Eastern Airlines. It demonstrates the airline’s embrace of cutting-edge aviation technology and its position as a key player in the global aviation industry.
