China

Taiwanese carrier China Airlines has taken delivery of a co-branded Boeing 777-300ER (extended range) aircraft, which features liveries of both the airline and the plane manufacturer.

Claimed to be the world’s first co-branded 777 jet, the new twin-engine 777-300ER is equipped with GE90-115B commercial jet engine.

With a standard three class configuration, the aircraft can fly a maximum range of 14,490km.

The latest delivery has made China Airlines to have a fleet of ten 777-300ER aircraft and enabled the carrier to continue to boost its long-haul routes to the North American and European markets.

With a 358 seating capacity, China Airlines’ 777-300ER jets feature new ‘family couch’ seats in economy class.

In 2004, the carrier became the first airline in the world to use Boeing’s co-branded livery on its new 747-400 aircraft, which was claimed to be the first co-branded twin-aisle airplane worldwide.
