China Eastern Airlines has embarked on a monumental endeavor with the launch of a project to build the largest aircraft hangar in Asia. As one of the top three major airlines in China, China Eastern Airlines is setting a new standard with this ambitious construction project.
Scheduled to take place between mid-2024 and the first half of 2026, the construction will be a vital component of China Eastern’s international aviation maintenance service platform project. With an estimated cost of around 1.5 billion yuan (approximately $207 million), this venture signifies a significant investment in the aviation infrastructure sector.
Once completed, the hangar’s gross floor area will surpass 110,000 square meters, boasting impressive dimensions with a 316-meter span and a 146-meter depth. This expansive facility will have the capacity to accommodate nine wide-body aircraft simultaneously for maintenance purposes, further enhancing China Eastern’s operational capabilities.
In addition to the hangars, the project will include facilities for repair, modification, and other essential infrastructures to support aircraft maintenance operations effectively.
Upon its completion, the hangar is expected to provide an impressive 1.8 million hours of aircraft maintenance services annually, reflecting China Eastern’s commitment to maintaining and servicing its fleet with the highest standards of quality and efficiency.
Furthermore, the construction of this project marks the commencement of the first of seven joint initiatives between China Eastern and Lin-gang Special Area, aiming to establish a new global aviation hub. This strategic collaboration underscores China Eastern’s vision to contribute to the development of a thriving aviation industry and strengthen its position in the global market.
