Air India received its first leased A320neo plane this week and the remaining 20 leased A320neos will be received by August next year, chief executive officer (CEO) and managing director (MD) Campbell Wilson said on Friday.
In September 2022, the Tata Group-led airline announced it is leasing 21 A320neos and 4 A321neos to enhance its flight operations.
This is separate from the massive 470-plane order the airline had placed in February 2023.
“This week saw the arrival of yet another aircraft – the first of 21 A320neos (VT-RTF) from the 25 narrow bodies we committed to leasing late last year.
