China Eastern Airlines received its 10th C919 jetliner from its manufacturer Commercial Aircraft Corp of China (COMAC) on Tuesday in Shanghai, according to the Shanghai-based carrier.

As the first customer and operator of China's first self-developed narrow-body jet C919, China Eastern has received six C919 aircraft in 2024.

With the delivery of the new aircraft, the Shanghai-based airliner currently operates ten C919 jets, which is the largest C919 fleet globally.
