AVOLON ORDERS 250 JETS IN BOEING AIRBUS SPLIT

Aircraft lessor Avolon placed its largest-ever order with either planemaker, splitting it between 140 Boeing 737 MAX jets and 110 Airbus aircraft across the A320neo family and A330-900 widebodies. The order lifts Avolon's firm aircraft commitments to 749, still subject to sign-off from Bohai Leasing, the lessor's majority owner, before month-end. Boeing ($BA) picks up the single largest slice of the deal.
