This Airbus A330 taxis by at Tokyo International Airport (Tokyo-Haneda).  Formed in 1988, the Chinese government has majority ownership in China Eastern Airlines. CEA operates a fleet of 56 A330 aircraft in their inventory and is China’s second-largest carrier by passenger traffic. This minimalist livery dates back to 2014. The tail features a logo that depicts a stylized swallow (a traditional Chinese symbol of spring and luck). The swallow’s wings are formed by the letters “C” and “E” (for China Eastern).
