Air China Ltd., the largest Chinese carrier, will buy a mix of 60 current 737s and the new Max model of the jet from Boeing Co. with a list price of about $6 billion to expand seating capacity with more-efficient planes.
Deliveries will run from 2016 to 2020, according to Air China’s statement to the Hong Kong stock exchange today. Neither the airline nor Boeing gave details on the split between the existing 737 version and the Max with upgraded engines.
