Jetstar recently inducted its brand-new Airbus A321neo, its seventh aircraft of the ‘neo’ family in Melbourne following a 20-hour journey from Airbus’ Hamburg facility. The aircraft will enter service in coming days. Jetstar is planning to take delivery of 11 more of A321neos, next-generation narrowbodies in the next 18 months.
Commenting on the new aircraft, Matt Franzi, Chief Operating Officer, Jetstar said: “Our Airbus A321neo LRs are some of the newest aircraft in the world and our current fleet of six has delivered world-beating mechanical reliability for its aircraft type. We are excited to be adding the seventh NEO to our fleet."
Jetstar has another 11 Airbus A321neos on order, with deliveries scheduled through to the end of 2024, taking it to 18 A321neos in total.
