Late this Wednesday morning (20), the Air China plane arrived in Brasília, where it is expected to remain until Friday (22) according to information provided to the Aeroflap Portal. It is not yet known which minister is carrying out the visit to Brazil and for what reasons.
The aircraft in question is an Airbus A330-200 delivered to the Chinese flag company Air China in 2008, capable of carrying 237 engers, 30 engers in Business Class and 207 in Economy.
As it is a state-owned company, it is common for China's president, ministers and authorities to use Air China planes on official trips. During the BRICS meeting held in 2019 in Brasília, the Chinese delegation brought a Boeing 747-400F with its official cars and another Boeing 747-8 with the entire delegation.
