Malaysia Aviation Group Bhd. is in talks with Boeing Co. to potentially take over delivery slots vacated by Chinese carriers as the US-China trade war heats up, Bernama reported Sunday.
The parent company of national carrier Malaysia Airlines may tap the capital market to fund any successful bids for Boeing’s slots as it looks to expedite the modernization of its aging fleet, Izham Ismail, chief executive officer, told the local news agency. The planes must meet the carrier’s cabin requirements, he was quoted as saying.
