Air China acquires 5 A320neos and 13 A320neos

Air China has signed a deal with AFS Investments, a subsidiary of lessor GECAS, to acquire five A320neos and thirteen A321neos. All aircraft will be delivered to the Chinese airline before the end of next year. Previously, the airline wanted to lease these aircraft, but decided to outright buy them instead.

The airline already has a fleet of 32 A320neos and is expecting three more from a previous signed lease-agreement. Air China also has ten A321neos, next to 43 A320s and 61 A321s.
