Kuwait Airways plans to lease eight Airbus passenger jets within 10 years, Chairman Ali Aldokhan said on Sunday.
The state-owned carrier is examining offers from leasing companies, and the contract duration for the leased planes, all Airbus 321 neo aircraft, will be between eight and 10 years, Aldokhan told a news conference.
The plan to lease eight planes is in addition to Kuwait Airways’ multi-billion dollar deal with Airbus in 2022 to buy 31 planes, 18 of which it has already received.
