Scoot to add 16 A321neos in 2020 Q4
Scoot will add 16 Airbus 321neos to its fleet, starting in Q4 2020. The aircraft are part of the airline's growth plan to expand its fleet by the end of fiscal year 2020/2021. Six aircraft will be upgraded from the airline’s current A320neo order, and the remaining 10 will be leased. The narrowbody aircraft will be configured in a single-class cabin, seating 236 passengers, 50 more than the A320neo. Scoot said the A321neo would be used primarily on medium-haul routes within 6 hrs. Hence, it is likely to eventually replace some leaner routes currently operated by the Boeing 787-9 or upgauge popular A320 services. The A321neo is finding its place in Southeast Asia, with almost all airline groups in the region placing orders for the type. <br/>
