据Leen Al-Rashdan报道，波音公司与空客集团均获得了租赁公司Avolon的订单。随着两家飞机制造商的待交付订单量持续增加，此次合作进一步巩固了它们的市场地位。
Co. and Airbus SE both won orders from leasing company Avolon, locking in delivery slots as the planemakers’ backlogs swell.
Avolon在周五发布的声明中称，公司将采购总计250架飞机，其中包括140架波音737 Max、75架空客A320neo系列飞机以及35架空客A330neo。此外，双方还约定了再购买100架飞机的期权。
Avolon will buy 250 aircraft — including 140 Boeing 737 Max planes, 75 Airbus A320neo family aircraft and 35 Airbus A330neos — with options for another 100 jets, the company said in a statement Friday.
Avolon首席执行官安迪·克罗宁在声明中表示：“本季度我们在飞机租赁与交易业务方面表现活跃，这充分体现了市场对搭载新技术的飞机的需求依然旺盛。”
“We continue to see strong demand for new-technology aircraft, reflected in our placement and trading activity this quarter,” Avolon Chief Executive Officer Andy Cronin said in the statement.
如今，飞机租赁公司已成为空客与波音日益重要的客户群体。它们为各航空公司提供了灵活的选择，使其无需直接出资购置昂贵的飞机即可实现机队更新。
Aircraft lessors have become an increasingly important customer base for Airbus and Boeing, providing airlines with flexibility to modernize their fleets without having to outright buy expensive aircraft.
波音737与空客A320这类单通道机型是民航业使用最广泛的机型，因此在飞机租赁市场上也最具流动性与受欢迎程度。
Single-aisle models such as the Boeing 737 and the Airbus A320 are the most widely flown aircraft in commercial aviation, making them the most liquid and popular part of the jet leasing industry.
截至目前，Avolon所拥有、管理或已签约订购的飞机总数已达1,092架，这些飞机涵盖了来自波音、空客、巴西航空工业公司及庞巴迪生产的各类单通道与双通道机型。
Avolon has an owned, managed and committed fleet of 1,092 aircraft, including twin- and single-aisle aircraft from Boeing, Airbus, Embraer and Bombardier.
