Aviation Capital Group (ACG) has delivered one Airbus A320neo on long-term lease to FlyArystan. The aircraft has Pratt & Whitney PW1127GA-JM engines and is the first A320neo that ACG has delivered to FlyArystan.
Claudio Cheinquer, ACG Vice President Marketing for Central Asia, Middle East, and Africa, said: “ACG is very excited to be a partner of Air Astana and FlyArystan on this momentous occasion. This is the airline’s first new A320neo from Airbus’ assembly line, and it marks a major milestone evidencing the airline’s successful growth trajectory.”
Adrian Hamilton-Manns, Managing Director at FlyArystan, said: “FlyArystan is the first low-cost carrier in Central Asia. We operate more than 60 domestic and international destinations with a fleet of 11 A320s. With the arrival of our 12th aircraft, our first new Airbus A320neo, FlyArystan will expand our route network and will offer affordable flights to a larger market.”
FlyArystan has named the new aircraft ‘LEO’ marking the beginning of an era of the young generation fleet. FlyArystan claims that the new A320 with increased seat capacity will enable it to lower the fares and encourage more people to travel.
