Sixth Airbus A350 helps sharpen THAI’s competitiveness
The delivery of its sixth Airbus A350 XWB aircraft will enable THAI to strengthen its competitiveness in the airline industry, a THAI VP said. The new aircraft would help improve the airline’s products, Pranee Chandracherd, THAI VP of business development and corporate strategy, said. THAI ordered 12 A350-900 aircraft with 8 of them on lease from US-based CIT. The first THAI A350 XWB arrived in August last year. The other 6 carriers will be delivered by next year. The objective of ordering those new aircraft was to modernise THAI’s fleet by decommissioning older aircraft and replacing them with new ones, Pranee said. The new planes fit the company’s strategy of increasing productivity to support the company’s growth through an increase in flights on popular routes, Pranee said. <br/>
