ITC AeroLeasing has delivered one Airbus A319 commercial passenger jet to a French airline. This A319 will be joining the operator’s Airbus fleet, primarily strengthening its corporate charter operations.
“This A319 airliner is equipped with long-range auxiliary centre fuel tanks and will be serving the operator’s corporate clients to transfer between Europe and Africa/Asia. The aircraft will be certified to EASA standards and include a high spec all business class cabin, along with the ability to revert to standard economy passenger airline configuration. I am very pleased to be able to deliver this particular A319 which perfectly matches our long-term partner’s operational and financial requirements when they need it.” ITC’s President & CEO Mirika Nakayama commented.
“I am delighted that we have been able to step up to leasing a larger aircraft with our partner, taking us beyond the 50-seater regional aircraft threshold. It will not only help our partner to optimise and broaden their coverage and destinations but also demonstrates ITC’s fleet diversity and ability to broaden our portfolio based on customer needs .” Mirika continued.
The aircraft will be retrofitted with a 72-seat business class cabin and is scheduled to enter service in April 2023.
