Wizz Air orders 10 more Airbus A321ceos

Wizz Air has placed an order for 10 Airbus A321ceos, valued at US$1.1b at list prices, for delivery in 2018-19. The order for the International Aero Engines V2500-powered aircraft may be conditional on Wizz Air shareholder approval. The airline said a further announcement on this will be made in due course. Wizz Air operates 83 A320s and A321s (64 A320s and 19 A321s), after taking delivery of its first A321 in Nov 2015. The airline is planning to more than double its fleet by 2024, with more than 140 aircraft scheduled for delivery. These include another 22 A321s that will arrive by 2019, followed by 110 A321neos from 2019. “We are growing at a rate of 23% per year right now. That translates into inducting 14-15 aircraft a year, but it is very important that we deliver profit growth too," CE Jozsef Varadi said. <br/>
