TransAsia Airways of Taiwan has placed a firm order with Airbus for two widebody A330-300s and six single aisle A321s. The aircraft will be used primarily on direct services between Taiwan and mainland China, as well as on new regional routes. The A330s will become the first widebody aircraft to join the airline's fleet. Engine selections for both the A330s and the A321s will be made in the near future.
"This new aircraft order reflects the strong demand on our services to mainland China and the region," said Vincent Lin, Chairman, of TransAsia Airways. "TransAsia will benefit from the high level of technical and operational commonality offered by the Airbus product line, with the A330s flying on our trunk routes and the A321s enabling us to develop further our network both to the mainland and around the region."

Interesting to note this order occurred during the Zhuhai airshow on mainland China ;)
