C919 is gradually expanding its user base. On July 27, Supeng Airlines, a subsidiary of HNA Holdings, told reporters that it will receive its first C919 passenger aircraft in the fourth quarter of 2024, becoming the world's first private airline to operate the C919.

On July 19, He Dongfeng, Chairman of COMAC, publicly stated that the C919 will be delivered to Air China, China Southern Airlines and other customers in the second half of this year, and is also making every effort to promote the increase of production capacity. At the same time, the design and development of the domestically produced C929 wide-body aircraft are steadily advancing.

Data from China Eastern Airlines shows that the seventh C919 has been delivered and has been put into route operation. Since the summer travel season this year (July 1 to July 21), China Eastern Airlines' C919 fleet has operated 366 flights, transporting more than 49,000 passengers, with an average passenger load factor of 86%.

Professor Zou Jianjun of the Civil Aviation Administration of China told the Securities Daily reporter that the delivery of domestic large aircraft is an inevitable process for the development of my country's aviation industry, and domestic civil aircraft will usher in new development opportunities. More importantly, this also means that the C919 has been verified by commercial operations and is ready for large-scale production and delivery. (Securities Daily)
