Farnborough, United Kingdom (AFP) July 14, 2014


Okay Airways, the first privately-owned Chinese carrier, has agreed to buy 10 single-aisle Boeing planes worth $980 million at current list prices, the US planemaker said Monday.

Boeing and Okay Airways announced an order for six 737 MAX 8s and four Next-Generation 737-800s at the Farnborough airshow near London.

Okay Airways is also converting five 737-800s from a previous order into 737-900ERs, a statement added.

"The addition of the new 737 MAX airplanes will help us explore new regional markets while strengthening our existing domestic routes," he added.
