China Aircraft Leasing Group Holdings Ltd, a Hong Kong-listed aircraft leasing company, denied earlier media reports about its plan to suspend the orders of 100 of the Boeing 737 MAX aircraft, and it said on Tuesday that there is no change in the orders and no plans to stop the payment.
The 100 737 MAX aircraft are expected to be delivered between 2023 and 2025. The company said it feels deeply sorry about the issues regarding the 737 MAX.
"We are in close communications with Boeing, and there is no change in the orders for the moment. Currently, we don't have any 737 MAX in our fleet, so it doesn't have any impact on our operations," the aircraft lessor said.
