SpiceJet to boost fleet, lease up to 20 engines
Budget airline SpiceJet will lease up to 20 engines to reactivate its grounded fleet over the next two to three months.
The development comes after the airline partnered with aftermarket provider of engine services FTAI Aviation on a CFM56 revitalisation programme. The CFM56 is an engine type that powers SpiceJet’s Boeing 737 aircraft.
According to the airline, the move to lease engines will be critical for servicing new routes.
