Air China has signed an agreement to order 60 Boeing 737s jets, a deal valued at $6 billion at list prices.

Air China’s tentative order includes Next-Generation 737 and 737 Max airplanes.

“Our long-standing and productive partnership with Air China dates back to the airline’s beginning and we are proud the 737 has been part of their success,” Ihssane Mounir, a Boeing vice president of sales and marketing, said in a news release.

The aircraft are to be delivered between 2016 and 2020 per the agreement, which was disclosed Monday in a Air China regulatory filing, according to Reuters.
