China's homegrown C919 passenger jet is to make its Middle East debut at the 2025 Dubai Airshow, one of the world's largest aviation exhibitions running from Monday to Friday this year.

Two single-aisle C919 planes and one C909 business jet are on display in Dubai, according to Shanghai-based Commercial Aircraft Corp of China (COMAC), the developer of the aircraft models.

The C919, a narrow-body jet comparable to the Airbus A320 and the Boeing 737 series, entered commercial service on May 28, 2023. To date, it has secured more than 1,000 orders from home and abroad.

This year's Dubai Airshow has drawn more than 1,500 exhibitors and is expected to see over 148,000 visitors.
