China Southern Airlines Co. (1055.HK) said Tuesday it has agreed
to buy 10 aircraft from Boeing Co. (BA) with a combined catalogue
price of US$2.98 billion, as it expands its capacity to meet
growing demand for air travel in China.
The Guangzhou -based carrier said in a statement that the 10
Boeing 777-300ER planes will be delivered in stages from 2013 to
2016.
China Southern said it will mainly use internal resources and
bank loans to finance the purchases.
Once all the aircraft have been delivered, the airline's
available ton kilometers--a measure of capacity--will increase by
7.9% from the end of December 2011, it said.
