Lagos-based Green Africa signs for 50 A220s

Nigerian carrier Green Africa Airways has tentatively agreed to acquire 50 Airbus A220-300s, a potentially strong order for the twinjets. The agreement for the Pratt & Whitney PW1500G-powered aircraft has been disclosed by the airframer, following the signature of an MOU. It comes more than a year after the company provisionally signed for up to 100 Boeing 737 Max jets, before the Max family was grounded in early 2019. Green Africa Airways founder and CE Babawande Afolabi says the A220 deal will be the “largest ever order” on the continent for the type.<br/>
