According to Caixin Global, Hainan Airlines is the first carrier of the group and as such “should be the first recipient” of these orders. Its fleet already counts (212 Airbus A330 and especially Boeing 737 and 787), Hainan Airlines therefore providing more than a quarter of its planes and will be “probably the largest recipient” of these new planes.
