Xiamen Airlines to order 10 737s

Chinese carrier Xiamen Airlines is to purchase 10 Boeing 737 aircraft, for delivery over the course of 2015-16.
Xiamen Airlines' purchase has been disclosed by majority shareholder China Southern Airlines.
In a statement, China Southern says the aircraft are worth $699 million at catalogue prices. All 737 aircraft are powered by CFM International CFM56 engines.
China Southern says the twin-jets' acquisition will be funded partly by internal Xiamen Airlines resources, and partly by commercial loans - although it adds that no agreements have yet been reached with any banks on the finance.
Acquisition of the aircraft, it states, will increase the group fleet capacity by 2.3%, compared with the end of 2009.

Xiamen Airlines is negotiating with Boeing on an order for six 787 aircraft as part of its international expansion plan, according to Xiamen GM Che Shanglun.

The Xiamen-based carrier operates a fleet of 68 Boeing aircraft on more than 15 domestic and international routes. It plans to expand its fleet to more than 130 by 2015.

Che revealed the carrier had net income of CNY1.8 billion ($272.6 million) in 2010 and reduced its debt ratio to less than 70%, which he said provides a solid financial base for the carrier's fleet expansion.

In addition, Xiamen received a CNY810 million capital injection from majority owner China Southern Airlines to fund a rapid fleet expansion last month.

China's big three have also accelerated their fleet expansion pace owing to the robust growth of market demand.

Recently announced orders have come from China Eastern for 50 A320s ([Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien]); CZ for 30 A320s and six A330s ([Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien]); and Air China for 10 A330s and 10 A350s ([Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien]).

Xiamen Airlines veut rejoindre l’alliance SkyTeam

La compagnie aérienne Xiamen Airlines veut suivre l’exemple de sa maison mère China Southern Airlines et rejoindre l’alliance SkyTeam, aux côtés d’Air France – KLM ou Delta Air Lines.
Alors que SkyTeam accueillera officiellement le 21 juin 2100 deux autres compagnies chinoises, China Eastern Airlines et sa filiale Shanghai Airlines, une quatrième a exprimé son intention de les rejoindre, selon le site ATW: Xiamen Airlines, dont le réseau est principalement domestique mais qui vole également vers Singapour, Taïwan ou Kuala Lumpur. Elle avait lancé une quarantaine de route l’année dernière, et se prépare à atterrir à Lhassa dans la région autonome du Tibet, d’ici la fin de l’année.
Lancée en 1984 dans la ville du même nom, dans la province du Fujian face à Taïwan, Xiamen Airlines opère une flotte de 73 Boeing 737 (séries 700 et 800) et 757-200. Elle a en outre commandé six 787 Dreamliner le mois dernier, pour opérer de futures routes vers l’Europe, mais aussi six Comac ARJ21-700, le premier monocouloir moderne construit par la Chine.
Rappelons qu’une troisième compagnie rejoindra SkyTeam cette année, la taïwanaise China Airlines. Après la récente annonce de Malaysia Airlines, qui a opté pour Oneworld, et l’arrivée prévue de Shenzhen Airlines dans Star Alliance, les seules compagnies asiatiques non affiliées seraient alors Philippines Airlines, Eva Air (Taïwan) et Hainan Airlines (Chine), plus des transporteurs plus « modestes » comme Royal Brunei ou Bangkok Airways
