New Airbus A320neo integrated the Azores Airlines fleet

Global Airlines Airbus A380 1st Flight Delayed To 2025 Global Airlines has high ambitions across the Atlantic. Global Airlines is delaying the launch of its commercial operations to 2025, with its first Airbus A380, which was ferried to Glasgow Prestwick Airport (PIK) for maintenance and interior refitment, still undergoing these processes at the Scottish airport. ✈️ Pushed back to 2025 When the airline announced the acquisition of its first Airbus #A380 aircraft from the aircraft asset management company Dorrick Aviation in May 2023, the United Kingdom (UK)-based Global Airlines said that it would launch flights in the spring or summer of 2024. While the A380 that it ferried to PIK was a different airframe, the airline has continuously reassured that it would begin flights in 2024, the latest announcement, which broke the news about its partnership with Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe, indicated that it plans to launch passenger flights “next year.” Meanwhile, the airline’s only active Airbus A380, registered as 9H-GLOBL, was still undergoing maintenance and cabin retrofit processes at PIK. Global Airlines said that the next step of the maintenance process should start in the next few weeks, which would take it a step closer to launching operations next year...

Condor Flugdienst GmbH is thrilled to announce the arrival of the first A320neo with the registration D-ANCZ, marking a significant milestone as the inaugural member of the A32X fleet. Just a few weeks ago, this cutting-edge aircraft journeyed from Toulouse to Frankfurt, symbolizing the next chapter in its fleet evolution. As the airline continues to integrate these new aircraft into its operations, its modernization efforts extend beyond long-haul routes, thanks to its successful fleet rollover. The addition of the A320neo to its short- and medium-haul routes underscores the airline's commitment to providing passengers with enhanced travel experiences and improved efficiency. With a total of 41 aircraft ordered from Airbus, the airline is poised for further transformation. These new additions will gradually replace its existing fleet of A320/21ceos and B757s in the coming years, ushering in a new era of innovation and excellence in aviation. Stay tuned as Condor embarks on this exciting journey of progress and advancement together! ✈️ #Aviation #A320neo #FleetModernization #Innovation AVIAREPS Group

The A220 is actually a rebadged Bombardier C Series

With KM Malta Airlines, the newly founded national airline of the Maltese Islands, Lufthansa Technik welcomes another customer for LEAP-1A services. Over the next 9.5 years, the MRO provider will perform the repair and overhaul of this engine type operated by the Maltese airline on its Airbus A320neo fleet. Lufthansa Technik is currently undertaking two quick turns for KM Malta Airlines. Since the LEAP-1A engines are still at the beginning of their life cycle and most do not yet require an overhaul, so-called quick turns are performed.

Interesting overview

This is a very nice article from Rytis Beresnevicius, especially if you fly or have flown Airbus. I loved the time I spent flying the A330, and sometimes I have trouble deciding which is my preferred airliner (that I have flown), the A330 or the B787. The B787 is faster and burns less fuel. The wing is fantastic, and it glides. It is healthier, as the pressurisation system works differently; simply put, the aircraft captures outside air and channels it into the air conditioning system without bleeding it from the engine compressor stage. In turn, it allows higher humidity on board, added to the fact that it is made of Carbon fibre. Also, the cabin altitude is significantly lower than the rest of airliners. A horrible feature is the cockpit seat. Do you remember the wooden chairs at school? Well, something like that. Which one is your favourite, and why? #airlineindustry #airliners #boeing #boeing787 #airbus #airbuslovers

Razlog za još jedno u nizu kašnjenja za A321XLR program i ovog puta su problemi u sertifikaciji aviona koja po rečima generalnog direktora Airbusa "traje duže od očekivanog". The reason for another in a series of delays for the A321XLR program and this time are problems in the certification of the aircraft, which, according to the CEO of Airbus, "takes longer than expected". https://lnkd.in/dXf88H9X #airbus #aviation #a320neo #travel

Very happy to read about the mega order placed by Cathay Pacific today for 60 Airbus A330-900Neos (30 firm + 30 options). It is the right way forward for CX, as it allows them to maintain "fleet continuity" as these planes would be replacing their existing Airbus A330-300s (39 units) so there is no re-training/certification what so ever required for their pilots and engineers. The two main benefits that the A339Neo brings to CX versus the A333s that it replaces are as follows: i. Up to 3 hours greater flying time hence permitting long haul flights to AKL, CHC and possibly NAN (Nadi), HNL, JED, MRU, IST, WAW, AMM, PRG in the future which the A333 cannot perform. ii. Better fuel burn i.e. A339Neo burns 6,477 liters per hour versus 7,099 liters for the A333 i.e. -9% On a seperate but more important note, the A339Neo is a much cheaper aircraft to purchase versus Boeing 787-10 and Airbus A350-900 hence big savings on CAPEX (capital expenditure) are incurred too. #A330neo #a330 #cathaypacific #hkg #oneworld #skyteam #staralliance #b787 #a350 #b777 #hongkong #airbus #kowloon
