In a transaction arranged by Skyworld Aviation, Estonian Air has taken delivery of two CRJ 700 aircraft. Serial number 10085 (ES-ACF) was delivered on October 2 and serial number 10083 (ES-ACE) on October 9. Both CRJ 700s are already in service with the Estonian airline alongside three existing CRJ 900s.
The aircraft are owned by Regional One of the U.S. and have been placed on long term lease with Estonian Air direct from the previous lessee Lufthansa Cityline. Skyworld Aviation has worked closely with Estonian Air on consultancy projects for the last three years during a time of change for the airline. Up until recently the operator flew four E170s subleased from a European airline until they came to the end of their head lease. Estonian Air continues to operate an all-CRJ fleet.
