JP Lease Products & Services and JLPS Ireland have announced the lease of a newly converted A321 P2F aircraft to SmartLynx (part of the Avia Solutions Grpup).
This marks their eighth aircraft operating lease with the Latvia-based company, which as the largest ACMI service provider in Europe operates a fleet of 55 aircraft (due to expand to 65 by the end of the year).
Describing how the partnership with JP Lease has “played a key role in fuelling SmartLynx’s strategic expansion,” CEO of SmartLynx Airlines Zygimantas Surintas added that co-operation across both passenger and cargo fleets has had a “significant impact on [the airline’s] service reach and capabilities worldwide”.
As well as holding one third of the ACMI market in Europe, SmartLynx Airlines also operates in the USA, North America, Asia, and Africa and holds Air Operator Certificates (AOC) in Latvia, Estonia, and Malta.
