TCI has reached an agreement with Donghai Airlines in order to design and manufacture the galleys of their first 10 new B737 Max-8 aircraft orders. The delivery of the aircraft will start in 2019. This agreement has been a critical milestone for TCI as an entrance to Chinese Aviation Market.
Donghai Airlines was established in 2002 as the first private airline in China. It is based at Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport and serves 41 cities across China and started their first international flight between Shenzhen and Utapao in 2017.
