China Eastern Airlines to buy 25 Airbus A330neo jets for list price of $9.4 billion

HONG KONG/PARIS, June 26 (Reuters) - China Eastern Airlines said on Friday it plans to buy 25 A330neo jets from Airbus for a catalogue price of about $9.35 billion, as the Chinese carrier expands its widebody fleet to serve more international routes.

The aircraft are scheduled to be delivered in batches from 2029 to 2033, China Eastern said in a filing to the Shanghai Stock Exchange, adding that the two companies signed the purchase agreement in Shanghai earlier in the day.

China Eastern said in the filing that the catalogue price of $9.35 billion is based on Airbus's January 2025 list prices and the actual transaction price would be lower, with the airline securing a discount more favourable than in previous purchases from the European planemaker. Large discounts are standard practice when airlines place sizeable orders with planemakers.

The Shanghai-based airline said the widebody jets would primarily be deployed from Shanghai Pudong Airport to expand intercontinental destinations and increase flight frequencies, bolstering the hub's role as a transfer centre for long-haul routes.

The deal comes months after China Eastern in March signed a separate agreement with Airbus to purchase 101 A320neo aircraft at a list price of about $15.8 billion, as major Chinese airlines point to ​a renewed focus on international expansion as a key growth driver.

It also comes as Airbus steps up efforts to expand its share in the world's second-largest aviation market, where it expects passenger traffic to grow by around 5% annually over the next two decades.

Reuters has reported the European planemaker has been in on-off negotiations in recent years to secure a huge order of up to 500 jets in China -- a type of package often tied to state visits -- but no deal was announced when French President Emmanuel Macron visited China in December.

The A330neo is an upgraded fuel-efficient version of the previous-generation Airbus A330 long-haul jet, featuring high-aspect-ratio wings and improved aerodynamics. It is powered by Rolls-Royce Trent 7000 engines. 

China Eastern expects at least 10 of its older A330 jets to be retired on age grounds during the delivery period, meaning the new planes will partly serve as replacements.

The deal would be funded through a mix of the carrier's own capital, bank loans, bond issuances and other financing instruments. China Eastern said the phased payment structure was not expected to have a material impact on its cash flow or operations.

In a separate filing, China Eastern said one offshore unit would issue an overseas bond worth up to 2.8 billion yuan ($411.89 million), without specifying the use of proceeds.

AirAsia X cancels A330neo orders, delays Bahrain hub

AirAsia X (D7, Kuala Lumpur International) has cancelled an outstanding order for fifteen A330-900N aircraft, according to May 2026 orders and deliveries data from Airbus. The previously announced cancellation follows a shift across AirAsia Group to long-range narrowbodies. The group recently committed to fifty A321-200NY(XLR) aircraft.

Separately, AirAsia X has delayed the launch of its planned hub at Bahrain International, citing concerns over the conflict in the Middle East. The carrier confirmed that its planned fifth-freedom Kuala Lumpur International-Bahrain-London Gatwick service, originally scheduled to launch in June 2026, will now commence in August or September, subject to operational and market conditions.

Airbus confirms Azul as undisclosed buyer of four additional A330neos

Airbus has confirmed Brazil’s Azul Linhas Aéreas as the previously undisclosed buyer of four additional A330-900s, or A330neos.

On June 1, 2026, Airbus said that news of the expanded order brings the airline’s backlog of A330neo to 11 aircraft.

Azul initially placed a firm order for three Airbus A330neos in November 2022 and then in December 2023 increased this by another four to seven A330-900s in total.

At the time Azul’s CFO, Alexandre Malfitani, said: “We are proud to announce this order, as it confirms Azul as the airline with the most fuel- efficient fleet in the region, with over 80% of our capacity coming from next-generation aircraft. With the five A330neos we currently operate and the seven we now have on order, we will standardize our international fleet, allowing us to further enhance Azul’s renowned customer experience and on-time performance.”

Azul / GuiMilhas

On May 29, 2026, Azul took delivery of its first A330neo directly ordered from Airbus. The aircraft, registered as PR-ANU, flew from Toulouse Blagnac Airport (TLS), and arrived at Belo Horizonte Tancredo Neves Airport (CNF) around 10 hours later.

In a statement Azul said the A330neo had been named ‘The Sky of Brazil is Blue’ and was the first of 11 to join the fleet – the first acknowledgement that the airline had increased its order.

“The first unit starts operating in June, the second arrives in the second half of 2026, and the others arrive gradually in the coming years, following our growth with responsibility and vision of the future,” a spokesperson for Azul said.

Azul’s A330neos are configured with 298 seats and will be used on long haul flights, connecting Brazil to Europe, the United States and other international destinations.

In 2019, Azul received the Americas’ first A330neo which allowed them to leverage commonality with their existing A330ceo fleet.

Earlier this year, Azul emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection after completing a court-supervised restructuring that reduced its debt and lease obligations by approximately $2.5 billion and brought in $850 million in new equity investment.
