Asia-Pacific deliveries by type - June 2019
Asia-Pacific deliveries by airframer - through June 2019
Among the two big airframers, Boeing led Asia-Pacific widebody deliveries, while Airbus led narrowbody deliveries.
Boeing delivered eight 787 family jets and a pair of 777-300ERs against Airbus's six A350-900 deliveries.
In the narrowbody segment, the delivery stoppage owing to the 737 Max grounding meant that Boeing delivered just two 737-800s in June, compared with Airbus's deliveries of 12 A320neos.
Lessors had a subdued month, with involvement in 12 of the region's 35 deliveries.
Lessor involvement in Asia-Pacific deliveries - June 2019
ICBC led with involvement in three deliveries; one A320neo each to Chongqing Airlines and GoAir, and an A350-900 to Asiana Airlines.
BOC Aviation and China Aircraft Leasing followed with two deliveries each. BOC was involved in a A320neos that went to Qingdao Airlines and Skymark Airlines, while CALC was involved with two of Air China's A320neo deliveries.
Of six new maindeck freighters delivered in June, one went to an Asia-Pacific carrier, with Air Japan, the cargo unit of All Nippon Airways, taking a single 777F.
