The placements are in addition to the two new 777-300ER aircraft scheduled for lease from ALC to KLM in early 2015 and early 2016, all from ALC’s order book.
Steven F. Udvar-Hazy, Chairman and CEO of Air Lease Corporation, said: “The Boeing 777-300ER aircraft continues to be a fundamental part of KLM’s long haul fleet operations. KLM is one of our key and strategic European airline customers. This placement of four new Boeing 777-300ERs continues our long and excellent relationship with KLM.”
Grant Levy, Executive Vice President of Air Lease Corporation, said: “ALC is proud to announce this successful transaction with KLM, which is now committed to lease a total of four new Boeing 777-300ERs on long term basis from ALC’s own order pipeline. The Boeing 777-300ER aircraft continues to be a fundamental part of KLM’s long haul fleet operations.”
