Bohai Leasing Unit to Sell 33 Aircraft Leasing Assets for $1.609B

Bohai Leasing said its subsidiary Avolon’s unit plans to sell 33 aircraft leasing assets with attached leases to LAC Ireland1 for about $1.609 billion, or roughly RMB 10.924 billion. The company said the deal will help optimize its aircraft asset structure and keep its leasing fleet younger, with closing expected by March 31, 2027.

AI take

This is a portfolio-recycling move rather than a distress sale: Bohai is using Avolon's scale to shed older leased aircraft and keep the fleet young, which matters for residual values in a market where age and lease attachment drive pricing. The long closing window — out to March 2027 — suggests the buyer, LAC Ireland1, is taking on staggered lease and delivery obligations rather than a clean immediate transfer. The open question is whether similar disposals follow, and whether the proceeds are redeployed into newer assets or used to trim leverage.
