NEWPORT BEACH, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan 29, 2026--

Aviation Capital Group LLC (ACG), a premier global full-service aircraft asset manager, announced today the delivery of a new Boeing 737 MAX 8 to T’way Air (“T’way”), expanding our relationship with the South Korean airline.

This delivery marks the first in a mandate for seven 737 MAX 8s which are scheduled to be delivered by ACG to the airline throughout 2026. T’way was founded in 2010 and now operates a fleet of 46 aircraft to over 60 destinations throughout Asia, Australia, Europe and North America.

“We are thrilled to further develop our existing relationship with T’way through this first 737 MAX 8 delivery. The seven 737 MAX 8s to be leased by ACG to T’way during 2026 will support the airline’s strategy to sustainably connect South Korea to the Asia/Pacific region, one of the world’s fastest growing aviation markets,” commented Tom Baker, Chief Executive Officer and President of ACG.

The 737 MAX 8 can carry up to 189 passengers with a range of 3,500 nautical miles (6,480 km). On average, each 737 MAX 8 reduces fuel consumption and carbon emissions by 20% and has a 50% smaller noise footprint compared to the airplane types it replaces. All 737 MAX aircraft are powered by LEAP-1B engines from CFM International.
