Air Lease has delivered one new Boeing 737-8 aircraft to Air Canada, marking the first of five jets scheduled to join the carrier’s fleet under a long-term lease agreement signed in 2023.
The aircraft was delivered from Air Lease’s orderbook and is the latest addition to Air Canada’s narrowbody fleet as the airline continues its fleet modernisation programme.
“Air Lease is pleased to deliver from our orderbook this first of five Boeing 737-8 aircraft on lease to our long-time customer, Air Canada,” said John Plueger, chief executive officer and president of Air Lease.
The remaining four 737-8 aircraft covered by the lease agreement are scheduled for delivery later in 2026.
