Aviation Capital Group LLC (ACG), a leading global full-service aircraft asset manager, has announced the delivery of a new Boeing 737 MAX 8 to South Korean carrier T’way Air, (T’way) further strengthening the relationship between the two companies.
This delivery is the first under a mandate for seven 737 MAX 8 aircraft, all of which are scheduled to be delivered by ACG to the airline throughout 2026. Founded in 2010, T’way now operates a fleet of 46 aircraft serving more than 60 destinations across Asia, Australia, Europe and North America.
“We are thrilled to further develop our existing relationship with T’way through this first 737 MAX 8 delivery. The seven 737 MAX 8s to be leased by ACG to T’way during 2026 will support the airline’s strategy to sustainably connect South Korea to the Asia/Pacific region, one of the world’s fastest growing aviation markets,” commented Tom Baker, Chief Executive Officer and President of ACG.
The Boeing 737 MAX 8 can accommodate up to 189 passengers and has a range of 3,500 nautical miles (6,480 km). On average, it delivers a 20% reduction in fuel consumption and carbon emissions, along with a 50% smaller noise footprint compared with the aircraft types it replaces. All 737 MAX aircraft are powered by CFM International’s LEAP-1B engines.
