SpiceJet lessor asks India’s DGCA to de-register its Boeing aircraft
(Reuters) – Alterna Aircraft Ltd, an Ireland-based lessor of budget-airline SpiceJet Ltd, has asked India’s aviation regulator to de-register its plane.
Alterna, in its request dated Monday to the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), did not specify the reason to de-register one of its Boeing 737-800 aircraft.
“This aircraft is part of early termination agreement executed with the lessor way back in November 2021,” a SpiceJet spokesperson said. “This aircraft has already been removed from our fleet for over eight months and does not in any manner affect our operations or schedule”.
