My two cents.
This time Herpa announced many great news in my opinion,
Aerolineas Argentinas B737 MAX8: finally, after the B737-700WL special livery, the masterpiece of beauty with regular livery. Aerolineas Argentinas has one of the best liveries of Latina America and, with LATAM invasion, finally we start to have a good presence of the beautiful Latin America in 1:500 scale.
Turkish Airlines A321neo: a re-release but of one of the biggest and best airlines of the world. Nice addition.
Vietnam Airlines B787-9 special livery: a missing beauty in 1:500 collection
LOT B737 MAX8: Herpa - LOT has been a years-long soap opera with many episodes in which love-hate for the division of the rights of inflight models and in Polish territory rights have mixed. Finally the LOT MAX8 regular livery!
Air France A321 and B777-200: always nice having Air France models in 1:500
Condor A321WL "Island": "Alcatraz prison uniform" Condor livery always started to be appreciated and even loved by many, me included. Nice Herpa is releasing all the fleet
British Airways B777-200 "Oneworld": the same of Air France, British Airways is always a MUST
Eurowings A321: here i am not impartial because i love Eurowings so... absolutely stunning"
Uzbekistan Airways A321neo: maybe the guesta star, masterpiece of beauty for this exotic airline!

Comac C919: really a great surprise (announced for the second half of the year), here possible eairlines among the customers, excluding the various lessors:
Air China
China Eastern
China Southern
Hainan Airlines
Hebei Airlines
LAO Airlines
Sichuan Airlines
Suparna Airlines
Tibet Airlines

Club Model:
LATAM Chile A320 CC-BLA "Chile Flag livery"
Herpa continues to produce LATAM narrowbodies in special livery but better than nothing, i say. Wait for LATAM narrowbodies in regular livery.

Interesting to notice how Herpa is returning to the past with the A320-200 family (A319/320/321) with models with the old wingtips, before the winglets of the A320ceo and the new winglets of the A320neo family. Loving these models and there are enough examples on the last batches and among the just announced Airbus models.
Air France A321 F-GTAZ, Eurowings A321 D-AIDO, American Airlines A320, United Airlines A319, Lufthansa A319, LATAM Chile A320 both models, LATAM A319, Swiss A320.
