AirAsia agrees to order 14 A320ceos
AirAsia has signed an agreement to order 14 more Airbus A320ceos, Airbus said Thursday. The contract, subject to approval by AirAsia’s board, is valued at approximately US$1.4b at list prices. “Demand is very strong in AirAsia’s traditional countries, but now we have Indonesia, Philippines and India doing extremely well … [it] has led us to expand our fleet, and Airbus has been a great partner in finding us slots,” AirAsia Group CE Tony Fernandes said. “We still need to find more aircraft to expand our regional reach and are actively sourcing from the leasing market. The competitive environment is at its best, coupled with a stable oil price.” In April, AirAsia ordered 3 A320ceos, adding to an order book that also includes 296 A320neos and 100 A321neos. <br/>
