New Delhi: InterGlobe Aviation Limited-operated IndiGo, the country’s largest domestic airline, on Friday said that it has agreed to buy 620 new LEAP 1A engines from CFM International to power 310 Airbus A320neo family planes.
Though the airline didn’t reveal the deal value, the agreement is estimated to cost the airline millions of dollars.
“This agreement includes 620 new installed engines and associated spare engines, as well as a long-term, multi-year service agreement,” IndiGo said in a statement.
“In 2019, IndiGo selected LEAP-1A engines and signed a long-term service agreement for engines to power 280 A320neo family aircraft. This new agreement, therefore, secures the LEAP-1A engine and its long-term service agreements for a total of 590 IndiGo A320neo family aircraft,” it added.
